Tri-City Animal Hospital Inc

I've been using this vet for 10 years, and over the years, they have cared for two cats and are currently caring for my two pit bulls. I've boarded my animals here, and the assistants know them by name, and my dogs love coming to the vet! Dr. Abara is kind, unhurried, and willing to discuss how to keep costs low. When one of my pit bulls was injured over Thanksgiving last year, Dr. Abara saw her immediately, and then referred us to an animal hospital that had 24-hour care, saying that he didn't want her to be alone in his facility over the holiday, and that they would only be in twice a day to check the animals. The bill from the other hospital was $1100--money that Tri-City didn't get! I really appreciated their honesty, and their willingness to put my pet's well-being before their pocketbooks.

My wife and I went a week and a half ago to get my terrier a dental cleaning. On friday we set up an appointment and were quoted a price of $150 by the head doctor, Dr. Abara. When we went to drop of our dog Monday, there was a different doctor on duty and the front desk clerk presented us with a price of $180. We tried to get them to lower it to the promised amount. We didn't get to speak with the female doctor and the staff at the front desk said we were being charged for a catheter. From $150 to $180 is a big difference and other places in Atlanta charge as little as $125.We took our dog home instead and we were told that we would get a call from Dr. Abara the same day to discuss the problem. We DID NOT receive a call. Be aware that the head doctor does NOT set prices or policy. Each doctor sets their own prices and there seems to be no communication between doctors. Get the price in writing when you set an appointment!!

I have been taking my Cavalier to this vet since I adopted him in June and have had a very pleasing experience. I initially met with with Dr. Davis for his initial exam and she was very welcoming of questions. The staff was very attentive to me and my new pup and spent a lot time explaining to me the veterinary needs and schedule. Each subsequest visit has been the same. The assistants are also friendly and helpful. Since the first visit, I've seen Dr. Abara and received no less service than from Dr. Davis. I am scheduling his neuter procedure with them as well. Wjen I called to schedule the appointment, the aid gave me specific information on pre-op feeding, arrival time, pickup and fees.I've referred my next door neighbor that also has been pleased.

Friends, I took my 108 pound Rottie for a spay. The doctor admitted the pet and for about 200 dollars MImi was spayed. This included pain med to go home and a one night stay. I told all my family. I will drive 20 miles past several vets to meet with the doctors at tricity anytime. They really recognise the value of money and was later able to diagnose my other pet with hyperinsulinism after years of fainting fits. All we have to do is feed her multiple times daily. thank u Dr Tony & Davis.

It's not often that I take time out to write reviews like this one, but I feel it's my civic duty to warn people about this veterinary clinic. My first experience was not positive: the clinic was understaffed; the vet wasn't available for questions (and the one assistant who was there was clueless); I was quoted one price and when it was time to pay, I discovered $55 that no one mentioned previously; and finally, they failed to mention important follow-up care for the procedure my cat had - -I learned about it when I Googled it at home later. However, despite this poor experience, and because it is convenient to my home, I decided to give them one more try. I encountered similar problems - clueless staff, inaccessible vet, and extra charges (not to mention a very strange diagnosis that I?ve since found out was inaccurate!). This time, I requested an estimate BEFORE work was done on my cat which included charges of more than $200. The vet, Dr. Tony Abara, was ?too busy? to explain the charges, and the clueless assistant said they "had spent enough time talking to me already!" A total of about 5-6 minutes! Did they really expect me to pay for 2 different medical injections, drops, and tests that no one explained to me? One of the injections, as my new and wonderful vet explained, was for something that my cat definitely did not have. He actually encouraged me to report this clinic to the official veterinary licensing board, which I plan to do now. If you're considering this clinic, please think again.
