Good vet, but very practical. If you want to spent $10,000 on a cat, he will talk sense into you. Some people don't like that, so it you want to shoot the bank instead of putting an animal down at a certain point, you may not have a good experience. He knows his stuff and does good work, but he isn't a bleeding heart animal lover. I like that in a vet- we have 4 kids and a mortgage and I like the practical good sense approach. His work with our animals has been excellent and his prices are resonable.
