“For over 60 years my family has been taking our beloved pets to Ford. From Dr. Ford to Dr. Walter McCarthy to Dr. Patrick McCarthy, we have always received knowledgeable, attentive, and compassionate care. The office staff is also very knowledgeable and helpful. Sadly, we have just lost our little Isabella after 17 years. Dr. McCarthy and his staff helped us through this heartache. I am forever grateful. I highly recommend Ford Veterinary for your pet’s wellbeing.”
“I’ve been to A LOT of vets, for routine and emergency procedures. All of them prior besides OSU seem to price gauge and seem to care more about the green other than the animals. I truly believe many vets in this area are part of some sort of conglomerate and keep prices similar and attempt to crush those that do not comply.
This vet, completely goes against that norm. This was my first experience with them, for teeth cleaning / removal along w a fat mass removal on my Beagle. They were 1/2 the price of other vets in area ($1,500-$2,000 compared to over $3,000).
Not only that, a pet peeve of mine is vets requiring payment prior to treatment, which all in area do. DRIVES ME NUTS! It was refreshing to drop off my dog here and have them say, “we will call you when she’s ready!” And not pull out my credit card. Like it’s my dog, I’ll pay for it. Gerber gets it!
When I went to get my Pup the bill was BELOW the LOW end of estimate!! I’ve also never had that. I always come in expecting to pay high end or over as I always have before. I have had an animal die on the table and they billed the high end!! Apparently the complete procedure was 100% complete and the animal died (w/o CPR) AND they apparently used everything they estimated on the high end. Ridiculous.
Will Gerber always be below low end? No, of course not, things happen. But it is just so nice to see people caring about animals and not nickel and dimeing.
Lastly, speaking of nickel and dimeing her nails were trimmed AND ears cleaned spotless! They didn’t call and ask to do that for the extra $15-$30 other vets charged. They just did it, free of charge!
It’s just unheard of nowadays. All these extras, below budget, friendly, pay at pick up.
They truly care for the customer and I can’t put into words how grateful and happy I am. Thank you!”
“I have been using Companion care for years and absolutely love Dr. Downey! He is very kind, down to earth and yet gives it to you straight so you can make the best decisions for your furry family. They are also extremely compassionate when it is time to say goodbye to a part of that family.”
“Just wanna say we took our nine year-old boxer to Dr. Mikes today and he was the best the friendliest most knowledgeable and kind highly recommend him to anybody”
