How to Save on Veterinary Costs at Polson Animal Clinic

Preventive care

The vet and staff were great. The lady at the front desk was rude and unprofessional to both my wife and I both times we went there. Because of he attitude we will be using a different veterinarian clinic in the future. The veterinarian care was great though.

I've used Dr. Tyler for over 15 years. At one time, he was a caring vet, but that is no longer true. Several months ago, I brought a newly acquired Rottweiler that had been imported from Serbia to him for an exam and updated DHPP and Bordatella shots. My concerns were that she appeared somewhat overweight and inhaled her food. He checked her heart only and never performed any type of further check up nor did he palpate her abdomen. He then gave her vaccinations that contained live viruses, recommended a diet and a slow feed bowl. SIX DAYS LATER, this dog delievered FOUR puppies. NEVER should a pregnant mother receive vaccinations containing live viruses as they are known to cause spontaneous abortions, stillbirths and birth defects.. All puppies either instantly or eventually died. I called Tyler's office three times during this horror and he NEVER returned my calls. I went to his office the morning after her delivery and requested all of my dog's medical records. He didn't even have the decency or the courage to confront me or apologize for not performing an adequate and complete exam on the mother. His extreme negligence is inexcusable!

My daughter's dog was chewed up by another dog and a dog fight and he appeared dead he was in complete shock. It looked like his spine was broken and he was paralyzed. However we called the vet and they got him in immediately as soon as we got there. Did x-rays shaped him got his medication and took care of him so I think they did a great job.
