I have an older dog (12 years) with arthritis. I called Poplar Animal Hospital to get quotes on specific blood work, and was pleasantly surprised to know I was going to save $40-100 from other quotes for the same tests. Also, what really impressed me besides the pleasant attitudes of the front office staff was that the tech and the Dr. actually came down to the floor to examine my dog, rather than picking her up and placing her on the table and putting her through more pain than she was already in. My time and questions were not rushed and I felt a sincere sense of caring. I wasn't pressured into additional tests and any recommendations were simply that - recommendations with the decision left up to me. I left there paying exactly what I was quoted. Sunshine and I thank Poplar Animal Hospital for their caring and expertise
