I was shocked to see a really negative review on Dr. Klenofsky when I was using Yelp to pull up the…read morelocation for a new neighbor who was looking for a veterinarian, which which in turn prompted this review. We started taking our dogs to Dr. K in 1983, when I first moved to St. Louis after college, so I wanted to address this with my own first hand experience. Dr. K was a young man then, as was I, and the knowledge, intelligence, and compassion were obvious from the start. I was absolutely shocked by the things that were written in this negative review. Dr. K does have state of the art equipment, is amazingly accurate with his diagnoses, and is so well thought of by so many people. Also, don't judge a book by it's cover; Forum Vet is in a 45 year old shopping center, so, he can't very well change that, nor would any of us who have been taking our pets to him for decades want him to, or expect him to. Here's a little story. We were at dinner one night with a fairly large group at the Charcoal House on Manchester when the subject of our pets came up, as well as health issues, who had which Veterinarian, etc. As it turned out everyone at the table was using Dr. K, and there were so many stories about how their pets lives were literally saved by Dr. K's accurate diagnosis's and proper treatment. Additionally , Dr. K 's wife runs the office and she is incredibly compassionate and always does the right thing. She also does everything in her power to make sure that you're seen by Dr. K when your pet needs care. Also, if you notice, when you get his card, it has his home number on it. He told us to never call an emergency vet because he will answer the phone. We had an incident years ago when our dog was given some ibuprofen. A quick check on the internet said that it was lethal. We called an "Emergency Vet" who told us to give our dog hydrogen peroxide to induce vomiting which was entirely unnecessary and just caused our dog more distress. I got a thorough explanation from Dr. K why inducing vomiting was the wrong move. With regard to the pricing at Forum Vet; it's not out of line by any means. Also, what hasn't gone up; over the past few years especially. When I'm looking for medical advice and care, I damned sure don't try to find the cheapest physician for myself or my pets. Rest assured that when you take your beloved pet to Dr. Klenofsky at Forum Vet, your pet is in the best of hands, with a Veterinarian who loves what he does, and he told me the other day that he doesn't see himself ever retiring as long as he's able to provide excellent care for his patients. Sorry for the rant, but the record needed to be set straight. Dr. Klenofsky is the best veterinarian I've ever met, and this is my honest opinion from the last 42 years of him caring for our pets.

Creve Coeur Animal Hospital was with us for his entire life. He struggled with so many different allergies. We were there for monthly injections, prescription food, and medicated shampoo. I joined another veterinary clinic in an effort to get a better price for a dental cleaning. On my baby's last day of life, I called both veterinarian clinics and described his symptoms. The other veterinarian clinic offered for me to drop him off and leave him there while they tried to figure out what was wrong with him. If I had gone that route, I would've missed my last day with my dog. Creve Coeur Animal Hospital took his symptoms seriously and got us right in. They were sympathetic, informative and unbelievably patient. They walked us through the most difficult decision with grace. Since our last visit we have received paw prints and a certificate acknowledging a donation made in my good boys honor at the university of Missouri school of veterinary medicine. Creve Coeur Animal Hospital isn't just my vet. They were friends and family for my sweet Hobbes. You helped me give Hobbes 9.5 years of comfort and health. Thank you Creve Coeur animal hospital for all the years of love and care. It'll be a while before I'm ready to open my heart again but I have no doubt that my first new puppy visit will be with you.

While our wait time to be seen by the doctor was minimal, trying to get an actual appt was a different story. I noticed symptoms a week prior and when I called to make an appointment, they told me their first available wasn't for another week! Granted his first issue was minor, but the onset of the second issue needed attention sooner rather than later. It was disappointing having to call other places to see if they could accommodate my rather urgent request. While some were able, the fees would have been astronomical. Overall, the facility is great but in the future, I wish they'd have something available for "emergency visits" especially since it's an animal hospital.

The first visit, I got seen pretty quickly and they stitched him up. It was understandable in this case they did not care about any presurgical blood work or if he was fasted. When he was picked up, they did not supply any post op instructions other than "give the pain meds that you have at home" what?!! I've never received any medication from this vet office. My husband didn't know better and left. I then called later and told them I had the NSAID Previcox at home to which they told me to give that the "evening of the procedure, it only lasts 8 hours and he had it during surgery". It sounded fishy to me because I know it lasts 24 hours. In the end, I called my vet to get instructions. Also, my dog reacted pretty badly to the anesthesia given here. Normally he acts pretty normal. My vet said that what they gave "really packed a punch". I needed to ask the following day about the large amounts of seepage from the wound. I couldn't figure out which number to call, so I emailed and a vet did call me that day to say it was probably ok. In the end, 2 days later the sutures came open and I had to return to the office after my vet said it was too deep to heal on it's own. I waited on a room over an hour. That vet was thorough and nice and told me it had to heal on it's own. She gave good instructions. I made two more visits after that. Once, I walked in and the only woman at the desk was on the phone for 15 min taking 10 different spay/neuter appts over the phone from a rescue, I assume, before she checked me in. I'll stick to my regular vet but this place can work if you're in a pickle.

After my cat's last rabies shot he appeared to have a reaction and I have been reluctant to let my…read morecat have further rabies shots. Around the same time my cat was diagnosed with severe kidney disease, which is common in older male cats and they often don't show symptoms until it nearly kills them. Therefore the cause of his extreme lethargy may have been due to kidney disease and not the rabies shot. Fast forward 18 months. The previous vet clinic had closed and my cat's records were transferred to VCA Bal-Coeur, I might have to board my cat and I either needed a statement that my cat could not medically have a rabies shot or else he had to have a rabies shot. i took my cat to VCA Bal-Coeur for a wellness exam, shots and a nail trim. The doctor and the vet tech were both very nice, and my cat was calm when they did his weight and external exam. By law they had to give him a rabies shot but they also gave him antihistamine and antinausea meds before the rabies shot just in case. I brought them my cat's fecal sample for analysis, And they were also to do a blood draw for analysis and clip his nails. They then took the cat and his carrier to another room for the remainder of the exam. When they brought him back 30 minutes later, they said that they were unable to draw blood or clip his nails and I would have to bring him back for another visit and premedicate him with gabapentin. It was clear my cat was very anxious or frightened. Many people have remarked on how unusually laid back my cat is. I have always been in the room with him during the entire wellness exam. As long as he's getting treats and he can put his head against me, he's always accepted a lot of probing, shots and nail clipping. So my question to them was what happened when I wasn't there and I really didn't get a good answer except that they said they could tell when he was "done"and they didn't want to further traumatize him. If he was traumatized by 3 shots, I'm not taking my cat there again to be traumatized by a blood draw, a distemper shot and nail trim. Also VCA charges a lot for traumatizing a cat - they gave me an estimate of 762,90 - 953.63 for everything they were supposed to have done. The charge for what they actually did - the wellness exam, fecal analysis and rabies shot was $358.70.
