On July 20, 2020 I took my 1 year old cat, River to see Dr. John because she hadn't eaten all weekend, was lethargic, and just not herself. I had called, and was told to use the AirVet app to describe the issue and Dr. John would call me. He did and advised that I bring River in at 8:30 AM. I did that. She was taken in and I waited there in the parking lot for over 5 hours (I had to call out of work). I never got an update the entire time she was there. I finally got a call that River had elevated liver enzymes, was given fl... read more
I have taken my pets to this clinic for many years. Today however I had a difficult time finding a place to park. The lot has been changed and they are doing drive up medicine pick up. I booked my appointment but nothing on their very long message gave an indication of needing to call the office when you arrived at the office. As a result of recent knee surgery I struggled getting the pet Maggie out of the car. I was juggling my cane, her records and my billfold. I got to the door and saw the sign stopping me from entering ... read more
Extremely rude receptionist!! I called as a new patient to make an appt for an issue with my dog, and they couldn't see me for 10 days. I asked where else they suggest I should go then to be seen earlier and the girl laughed and said "nowhere!" I wanted to use this vet as my family members recommended it, but I'm extremely put off from this one interaction with the office staff.
Dr Emerson is a terrible Vet. So rude. I brought in my old dog who had been seen for years there. I waited patiently for Dr. Emerson and finally, an hour after my scheduled appointment time, she walks in and asks me why I am there. When I made the appointment I had said it was for an annual exam. Dr. Emerson stood there and said, " so what am I supposed to do about it?" I was floored at how rude she was. I have been going to this Vet clinic since Dr. Soltero senior was there and then Dr. Ketchmark. It is just NOT the sam... read more
BEWARE - Amazing Rude Receptionist - apparently too good for new patients! I was told no new appointments for 10 days, even with an emergency for my dog. I asked if they were not wanting new patients and the man for the Clinic said not if you can't wait 10 days. I am sure his boss would want to know that he is turning people away!
Thursday, September 3, 2020 - We have been taking out dogs to Saguaro Veterinary Clinic for 30 years. Both us and our dogs have loved their service and the care they took with our animal's veterinarian needs. However, during our appointment today, our first what I would describe as virtual appointment, the service was terrible, their communication to us as to what they did to our dog was confusing, and we came away looking for a new Vet. How they expect someone to come out to your car (they are not seeing patients because... read more
The receptionists in this office are ill-mannered, discourteous, lack basic communication skills and are unequipped to handle any kind of task they are presented with. Why they have been placed as the "face" of the company is beyond me. I was nothing but polite to them!! and they treated me like an irritant over the phone and gave my husband attitude when he arrived. His text to me was "It's like I'm dealing with a bunch of cranky teenagers." This isn't a single event either. This attitude and rudeness has been a constant.... read more
I am beyond disgusted with our experiences since Dr. Ketchmark left the office. The staff has been increasingly rude and condescending towards me, hold times have gotten longer and longer and both of my dogs have suffered due to the negligence of Dr. John Soltero. I took my 11 year old pit mix and my almost 2 year old coonhound mix (now deceased) to an appointment because they both had different ailments. I asked for blood work for my younger dog because she had been losing weight and was brushed off and had a probiotic sho... read more
Update: A different Vet has called me and I am happy with the result. My pup was diagnosed with Cushing's and the original communication of the diagnosis was not acceptable.
