Report
We have taken three different dogs to monfort Heights animal clinic since we moved to Monfort Heights eight years and I will never go back there again. This was my first experience dealing with Dr. McBride Sr and, while his demeanor left much to be desired, I could have forgiven the fact that he charged me over double what he quoted me for my dog's surgery, and I could've overlooked the poor postoperative instructions (no bandage, no cone, five sutures came out within the first few hours) and lack of general care and poor communication but I CANNOT forgive the fact that my dog is RIGHT

1976 -- my Kodachrome memories are swathed in the red, white, and blue bunting of the nation's bicentennial, red pennants in honor of the Big Red Machine, and the gray and white of my first shaggy dog, Daisy, light of my life, center of my universe for the duration of hers.

In the 90s there was Zo, plain Zo in the morning, and now -- 2019 -- there is Mimi, Martha on the dotted line. Nor did I outgrow the trust that I

I thought I would have a hard time finding a vet that I'd like as much as the one I had in Florida, but this place was amazing from the moment I walked in the door. The staff is very genuine and the doctor made us both feel so at ease. So happy to have found this vet!

Been coming here 30 years now, they have always, always, always, been great, with our cats and for our cats. Whether sick, hurt, old, annual checkups, whatever. Kittens to seniors, they've been our vet and we trust them completely.
