Beware of Dr. Lisciandro. I took my 9 mo. old kitten to this clinic twice within three days time because of continuous vomiting. My other cat had similar symptoms but was much better off than he was. This vet wanted me to spend $1400 dollars for an unnecessary surgery after seeing some abnormality on the x- rays, but the radiologist whom he sent the x-rays to disagreed with him as did another vet that I took my cat to. The other vet diagnosed him with a hairball and said the other cat was most likely having the same issue. After receiving medication my cat has been much better. Overall, I spent about $1200 for a hairball which you would think the er vets should have been able to figure out. Thank God I didn't let this incompetent vet perform unnecessary surgery on my baby. On top of everything else he got an attitude with me on the phone when I mentioned that my other cat had similar symptoms when he was trying to push me to go spend another $250 for an ultrasound, he said " I will not speak to you about the other cat," in a very condescending tone. I replied by telling him that he is very rude and asked shouldn't he take the other cat into consideration while making his diagnosis considering the fact that his symptoms were very similar. I guess in an attempt to make himself feel better he said that I had interupted him, which i didn't, and that now he would listen to me about my other cat. Can we say "arrogant." He also got short with me and told me that he already explained everything to my husband. I told him I am not my husband and after spending so much money already I want my questions answered about why my cat was already vomiting the minute he came home from there. I was also told by a local vet that this is not the first time he has heard that Dr. Lisciandro is very rude to people. Beware.

I took my beloved pet to the ER it stayed for a week and recovered for parvo. Yes i did have to pay a great deal but Being a responsible pet owner, I know that emergency rooms ARE going to be more expensive. I have many pets and it is great to know there is a place at night were i know my pets will be taken care of.
I love my pets and treat them as if they were children.
If you Choose to have a pet you choose to pay for their care. If you can not afford it, get a fish.

Unfortunately, many times my pets are injured or sick on the weekends or evenings when regular vets are closed. Since this place is open 24/7, I've had to take my pets there a couple times. One experience was good, one was bad. Both times I was charged an arm and a leg. The first time, my dog was in labor and unable to give birth. She had an emergency c-section, and 5 of the 6 puppies survived. Like most vets, they won't even see your beloved pet until you pay.

The second time I went there, in October of 2007, I brought in the same cherished dog. I was pretty sure they couldn't save her, and the fact that they couldn't was not their fault, or the issue. The issue is that I paid $500 for nothing. I brought her in, they had me pay a $300 deposit, we were there for about 10 minutes before they told me she had went into cardiac arrest, 15 minutes later they told me she was dead and charged me another $200. They didn't even do anything. What did I pay $500 FOR? They gave me my beloved baby in a box after I emptied my bank account and I went home and buried her. I seriously believe I was overcharged, but I was too devestated to care about the money at the time. I don't believe they actually performed any services that should have costed $500. There wasn't even any time. If you can avoid an emergency clinic, try to, because they charge at LEAST 2-3 times the amount of a regular vet's office.
