Povar Animal Hospital Ltd

I took my dog here because he wasnt eating and was throwing up. They immediately wanted to do exploratory surgery. I wasnt able to come up with astronomical amount of money that they were requesting instantly. They told me that if I did not act soon, he could die and would be in a great deal of pain. These are the options they gave me:
- Put him to sleep
- Sign him over to the vet. Then they would make the decision to do the surgery or not. If the did do the surgery, and he recovered, they would then adopt him out to SOMEONE ELSE!
I was beside myself, hysterical; I had no idea what to do. I called a friend and she recommended that I go for a second opinion at the Ocean State animal hospital in East Greenwich. I drove from povar straight to the ocean state vet. They gave him fluids and PEPCID AC AND HE WAS FINE! Just an hour earlier I was faced with the decision of giving him up or killing him. He has been fine since. I will never ever go to POVAR again.

Povar has been a wonderful vet to my little guy. The Drs. and staff are wonderful. The atmosphere has just been remodled and is bar none (better than most human hospitals) Very clean!!! The prices are a bit on the high side compared to other vets in the area but I think it is worth every penny!

I enjoy all my visits to Povar. For the most part, they have friendly Dr.'s and technicians. I have six cats and I trust Dr. Povar with caring for all of them. I usually deal with Dr. Povar himself, and I feel like he truely cares for my cats as if they were his own. When our cats have medical visits there, the people at Povar call about two days later asking how our pets feel. My family also orders special Science Diet cat food direct from Povar and they even call when the food comes in.
I reccomend going to Povar.

Polvar is another great vet in east bay! The staff is awsome. I brought a stray cat there a fwe months back and they admitted him free of charge! I have a few friends whom use them and they are great!
