He also stated I'd have to go see another vet. This is all slandering and untrue. I was short 80 cents and was going to go to my car to get the 80 cents, but a wonderful staff member said she would take care of it. This Dr denied my prescription for my service dog because he said I was looking for a new clinic. Why in the world would I look for a new clinic until he denied me the prescription for my service dog. Yes, I said I would have to look for someone else if he refused to fill any medication for my service dog. I did have to take her to Mountain View Humane to get her spayed due to my disability and lack of income. I thought at one time Blacksburg Animal Clinic was the best! This is not the case after DR Watson bought the clinic. He actually spoke with me on the phone as well and was very hateful and domineering. I tried to explain and he said he would send my medical records to whoever I wanted, then blocked my number as I only had a few hours to choose a new vet. I then emailed him to try to explain because he wouldn't give me a chance to speak on the phone when he called back. I said I'd have no choice to report him to the state board and DCA. He just gave me a hateful answer and then proceeded to tell me to do as I see fit. It's like he doesn't care! Who wants a vet like this?

They were extremely sympathetic when we had to say goodbye to Brutus and even sent us a handwritten note with his a paw print on it. That's something we will never forget. The care and consideration they have shown goes above and beyond any we have experienced. We would recommend Dr. Lawrence, Dr. Freeman, and their team to anyone in need of veterinary care.

On Tuesday, April 4, 2023, I took my cat to the Main Street Veterinary Clinic because of my concern…read morethat he was having increasing difficulty eating and retaining food. Dr. Schindler examined him and concluded that the problem was likely his age (nearly 17 years old). She offered blood work to identify any problem(s). I stated that costly blood work would not be beneficial (given the cat's age) and because I did not want an intrusive intervention; I was solely interested in providing comfort, if possible. The doctor suggested Cerenia would calm the cat's stomach. I (mistakenly) agreed to purchase it. The doctor also informed me that the cat's next Rabies shot would be due in October and asked if I would like her to receive it during this visit. I first replied that I was not concerned about Rabies because my cat was declawed and was not allowed outside. She replied Rabies shots are required by law. I thought to myself that, since the cat has not had a visible reaction to prior Rabies shots in the past, he would be OK this time as well. He was given the vaccination, paid and left. Upon getting home, I looked inside the Cerenia box and found only four doses. This was unsatisfactory because the cat regurgitates his meals several times a week and, at approximately $9.00 per pill, I could not possibly afford this medicine. I called the Main Street Clinic and made arrangements to return the pills. I asked for a cheaper treatment and was told there was no effective alternative. I have since learned that another cheaper option for some pets is probiotics. Shortly after getting home, my cat started regurgitating repeatedly, vomiting all the solids in his intestinal tract, and then foaming. At first, the foam was white, then pink, then I realized it was bloody. Initially, I did not understand how sick he was, but as the day went on, the cat visibly declined. He would not eat his scheduled meal and he just lay in a heap. This continued into the evening. The next morning he declined further and I called the Main Street Clinic to report that I feared my cat was dying and thought the vaccination might have brought it on. The receptionist called Dr. Schindler. She agreed that was a possibility and advised me to bring the cat to the clinic to receive fluids to ease his passing, do blood work, and (if he continued to decline), euthanize him. I asked the doctor why she was suggesting blood work. I asked again what would be the benefit for the cat from blood work, but received no answer. That completed the conversation. Fortunately, my cat has not died. It has now been over a week since our visit to the clinic and he is himself again: alert, even playful at times, and loving. This experience with Main Street Veterinary Clinic was horrific. The visit made my cat much sicker (not better). Dr. Schindler did inform me of the possibility of an adverse reaction to the vaccination, but I thought naively that if my cat had not had a negative reaction over the past 17 years that was not an issue. I regret that the doctor did not suggest I wait for Licorice's scheduled vaccination in October. I do not understand why the doctor even brought the vaccination up and risked putting an old, sick cat in jeopardy. When I later spoke to her indirectly on the phone, through the receptionist, she said that the cat was close to dying and the vaccine had likely hastened his passing. I thought this callous. I did not bring Licorice to the Clinic to hasten a painful death. Nor do I understand why a licensed veterinarian would advise me to do blood work on a dying pet. Certainly, it would not prolong his life or make his passing more comfortable. I believe that Dr. Schindler acted unethically by suggesting that what appeared to be a dying cat get an early rabies vaccination (even though she thought it could make him sicker) and suggesting blood work (not only during the clinic visit but a second time when we both thought that death was imminent). Cats dying from old age need neither vaccinations nor blood work.
