We recently had to take my dog "Coco" to Gast for an emergency. He was attacked by a coyote we believe. When we arrived the girl at the front desk, was very comforting and after observing her with other animals, we knew we were in the right place. We then were introduced to Dr. Barringer. She was very calm listening to all my concerns and assured me they were going to help my Coco but also not just start spending money. After examining him, she came to us and stated we needed x-rays. They stitched up what needed to be and realized his hip was dislocated. She attempted to put in back in place but it popped right out. She gave us an excellent recommendation of an Orthopedic Dr. and even called and spoke with Dr herself. She explained about money and really had my Coco and our best interest. I've taken my dog to his normal vet to have shots and so forth and he's always very nervous when we go. Here he was as cool as could be. The whole staff was incredibly helpful, upfront and very knowledgeable. Although it's a business, you can tell these people love animals and would never do anything unnecessary just for the money. I 100% would refer anyone there. Great people and I'm glad to say we took Coco to the Orthopedic Dr and the surgery was a success. This very tramatic experience led us to finding a great Vet that Coco will go from now on. Thank you Gast Animal Hospital!
