Bingle Veterinary Hospital

I have some mixed experience with Bingle Vet. I took my cat there for a general check up and a bath + claw trimming recently.

Good: The staff are very nice, the Doctor gave a great and detailed report for my cat's check up.

Bad: I was told to drop my cat off at 7am and pick her up at 2:30pm. When i got there she's still wet and when i got home i noticed all the loose furs still on her (which is the reason i wanted to give her a bath in the first place) and the claw was not trimmed at all. It almost seems they just get her wet right before I went to pick her up.

I would recommend this vet but not their grooming services.

I've been going to Bingle Vet for several years now and could not be more pleased with the service I get and the staff. Over the years, they have treated eight different pets of mine plus countless strays that I've found. Dr Vaughn and Caroline are two of the nicest people you could ever meet and they have always had extremely gifted staff members.

I just want to say thanks to you all for taking such great care of Korky while I was on vacation. Though, I think she was a little sad to leave you all when I retrieved her. I really thought she would be mad at me for leaving her for 6 days. Seems like she had a great time with you all. Dr. Vaughan - thank you for removing the moles off of her head. She looks great! I do appreciate all the care you have given her over the years. Your the best!

We went last week and had a new vet (NOT Dr. Vaughan). She talked the whole time and never answered any of the questions we asked her. She also approached my scared dog right away instead of trying to let her sniff her hand or warm up to her in any way, which caused my dog to feel threatened and growl. Then, the doctor had the audacity to tell me that I needed to work on her aggressive behavior. Well, even I know that you have to at least let a dog sniff you and get to know you a little bit before trying to touch a dog (esp on the head). The last time I was there, I had no problems with my dog being aggressive, as the vet tech knew how to approach a scared dog, and had no problems with Dr. Vaughan.

I will never go again until the new vet goes back to school and takes a few classes on animal behavior. It's seems like it would be common sense to a vet, but I guess not. It is truly the worst experience I've ever had with a veterinarian.

We brought our dog to Bingle Vet to be boarded for two days this week. When we picked up the dog today, we found out that the dog was not given his raw hide bones or treats as these were returned to us in the original packages still unopened. We called Bingle Vet to complain and was told that he was given balls and toys and other treats by the staff during his stay and he was happy while he was there. I advised that he's never played with a ball or a squeeky toy in the five years that we've owned him. I do not feel like the staff understands their responsibilty in boarding a dog. We're very disappointed that the dog was not given the treats that we provided for him since we know the dog best. We were told that the treats that we provided were forgotten about. We only hope that the dog was fed the food that we provided for him or was this forgotten as well? I would not recommend Bingle Vet to board your dog.

I had to take my cat there when she had a hurt leg. They told me that she would have to have her leg amputated. At the time she was 8 yrs old, and I had her since she was a kitten. So I got it done and the doctor and the nurses there were great with her. I wished I lived closer to keep going there. I would recommend this place to anybody that has a pet.

The people here are obviously passionate about pets and it shows in their handling and care of your pet during exams. I have the utmost confidence in the staff at this facility. The only downside is that it can be tough to get an emergency appointment, so you may have to consider an alternative, such as a private veterinarian. Recommended!

PROS: good staff
CONS: no emergency appointment
