Rase Vets has been appalling in their service.
They misdiagnosed my dog with arthritis, so started giving him Librela shots, as he did not have arthritis this had a really bad impact on him and he was losing complete control of his back end to the point we thought we’d have to help him walk with a sling. I tried to raise my concerns with them and they completely brushed me off and told me it was my fault as I needed to bring him in more frequently for shots. Well I’ve stopped taking him for them and his back end is back to normal.
Previously we’ve also had to make the vet check that they are giving him the right dose as a number of times they’ve had the dosage set for our other bigger dog rather than the smaller dog that needed the Librela.
Before this my dog went in for an X-ray so they could diagnose him. They kept him all day, only for them to ring just before they closed to say the vet wasn’t due to come in today and could we come pick him up before they closed. Picked him up and his neck and chest was shaved and there were lots of students at the vets. My dog is the friendliest dog you will ever meet, it’s known he’s an angel at the vets so we think he spent the day being used for practice.
They keep losing my information and getting it wrong. Such as the name of my animals, my postcode, my email, etc. Their customer service is absolutely appalling when it comes to ringing us back when they say and providing there services in the promised time.
My horse needed a blood test recently, they said we would get it back in 3 days. It’s been 14 and when we complained and tried to get a refund for the lack of results they tried to make us think they’d already sent it and it was our fault we hadn’t received it. I have been ringing the vets every day for these results, every day I was told the vet would ring the labs for the results and would ring us back later that day only to never receive a call back. Ironically, they’ve finally sent me the blood tests and it says the results were finished 10 days ago.
That’s not even taking into consideration the fact that the vet that came out to take my horses blood was obviously not an equine vet. She kept trying to take my horses blood, with her phone still in hand when my horse was obviously nervous. For some reason she was unable to take my horses blood whilst she was busy looking at her phone so they, thankfully, sent a more competent vet. However before she left she was accidentally texting me instead of a fellow vet about how wild and dangerous my horse was and that I needed a trainer. She also dropped a very long needle in the grass, which we gave to the next vet that came who was appalled.
As you can imagine we are moving all of our animals to a different vet. I do not recommend Rase Vets at all, even if they’re the closest vet to you, trust me the extra travel will be worth it.
