Newmarketvets

I received a $500 grant from the Farley Foundation for a surgery which wouldn't nearly begin to pay for one. The vet decided that the funds were insufficient to perform the surgery (naturally), so the medical problem remains. I asked if the funds could be put towards present medication for a lifelong problem. They said yes. The medication cost less than $500. I asked if the almost $200 balance could be put towards an examination fee, or the like. The vet is behaving as if the balance doesn't exist. I talked to the Ontario Veterinary Association which operates the Farley Foundation but their policy is that they only speak to vets, which, in my view, the vet obviously knows. A statement *not* out of spite at all: This vet is so money-motivated that they will NEVER give the slightest break to the needy, claiming that they have bills and costs... So let me understand: Receiving nothing is better than receiving something. This vet is the type who will NEVER respond to a large-scale emergency by volunteering her services. She may be capable but her priority is money. We went to another vet who charged literally half of what she was asking to actually do the necessary work as opposed to her request of double the price just to determine what was wrong. She also charged around $700 to do next to nothing, problem remaining. Stay away from this clinic unless you have money to burn.
