Reviews about Central Cowichan Animal Hospital
- ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪ ✪So it's called an animal hospital, so I thought that they would be able to take an emergency case. My dog was vomiting, shaking and bleeding, but the receptionist said that they don't do "emergency walk ins". She referred me to another clinic. I told her that I was walking and had a damaged knee and that it would take a while for me to walk to the other clinic. The receptionist told me it should be only a 45 minutes. Seriously! I get that they may be "booked up" but there was only one patient there and they didn't even attempt to squeeze my dog in. For the love of God...he was bleeding and vomiting! These people have no compassion for animals. I would not go back even if they found it in their little hearts to see my little guy. Followup Response Rebuttal: The response to my review is PR spin control. They said that they called another vet and stated, "what else could we do?" That is laughable in a sad way! They could have squeezed in an emergency case and rescheduled a non-emergency case if need be. They use a human hospital as an example with respect to triage. This is a good comparison but hospitals don't turn away cases where a human is bleeding, shaking and vomiting. I'm not sure that this animal "hospital" knows the meaning of "triage"! Like I said, the place was empty when I got there and putting animals with appointments first is NOT triage. This is a very sad place. I guess what it boils down to is that this place is a business and they are not in it to help animals but to make money and apparently they have enough clients that they don't have to worry about helping emergency cases. BTW I talk to a cab driver who has a cat that is registered at this "animal hospital" and when he takes his cat in with no appointment they see him right away. I guess it's like a close club and non-members don't count.by Robert MacDuffieDecember 23, 2016
