Never Go Here! Really! Used this place in the past for our Parrots Wings and Nails. Called and got an appointment for the Wings, Nails and a severe case of 'Feather Plucking'. When we arrived the receptionist said that they don't work with PARROTS! Dr came out and stated maybe just one more time, because she was allergic? Waited over an hour, receptionist would not give out the password for the internet! Dr rushed thru the procedure, never addressed the 'plucking problem' and said; I'll only charge for the nails.
The receptionist had already made up an invoice, demanded we pay that bill because she didn't know how to deal with refunds, could we come back later? WTF? The Dr had to take $30 out of her purse! Extremely Unprofessional & RUDE! Never Again, Never! I can only hope I don't get the Owner writing his usual crap after a bad review: Sorry we fell short of your expectation, we strive to provide exceptional care Blah-Blah-Blah - B.S. Never!

Was able to get ahold of their clinic via the email provided in the Yelp response. I hope they will be able to fix their phone line/staffing issues eventually though it is difficult with Covid.

The care is okay, but the prices are extremely high. Also, scheduling anything isn't easy. I left one vet for here, and over the course of one year, I've now left this vet for another. Again, the care is good, but the prices were about three times higher (and more) than anywhere else.

Please save yourself the stress and worry and stay far away from this veterinarian practice. I had been bringing my dog here for the last 7 years and something has gone wrong in the last 6 months. It's impossible to reach anyone by phone, appointments are booked with incorrect assigned vets, and their staff is beyond rude and unequipped to manage basic day to day tasks. It's very disappointing that my pups medical care has been spared and pushed away by terrible, insensitive and rude customer service from the front office team.
To the owner- bring back the basics to your staff and really hope this place can turn things around. I used to trust that my dog would be getting the best service with the most caring and loving staff. Somewhere this was lost ever since some staff retired or left. My family has been loyal to this practice with multiple pets for over 20 years and I feel there's is no other choice but to exit and start new elsewhere. Owners beware of bad service and silence from Belmont Vet!
