Angelcare Animal Hospital

I would not use this vet's services again. I brought in a cat to be spayed and do not feel that she properly closed the incision. She used staples rather than dis-solvable surgical sutures, and, although the animal remained at angelcare overnight for observation they DID NOT PUT AN E-COLLAR ON THE ANIMAL. When I picked the animal up from the office the next day the staples did not appear evenly spaced or properly anchored into the tissue. Along the bottom third of the incision the tissue seemed rolled or puckered and the staples appeared awkward compared to the ones at the top. Within days the loose staples popped out causing several inches of the incision to reopen. During this crisis the vet, who did not even bother to speak to me when I picked the animal up from surgery, was again, unavailable. A trip to the emergency vet and about $700 later the cat is okay, but Angelcare is never going to receive my business again. They didn't even bother to contact me when we didn't show up for her staple-removal appointment. She will also try to sell you on declawing and gets downright nasty when you tell her no. The overall impression I got from this place is profit before well-being.
