VCA Antech Inc
Outrageous fees/poor care

VCA is a monopoly in the emergency care of pets in off hours. They run a 24 hour care center with inexperienced staff at crucial hours when regular vets are closed.

Their fees are outrageous depending on the state you live. They started in CA and have bought out practices and ER's for cash. A c section runs about $3600.00 as quoted in CT.

They are NOT a true ER as they always have to call a "surgeon" for surgery as the vet on staff is too inexperienced for surgeries. They pad the bill as though the pet was human, loose many lives and also put down pets as their fees are too high for the average person.

They have refused service to people without cash or a check. They will sometimes insist on spaying an animal after a c section.

There are no regulations as to fees charged and they have ripped off MANY people. They are the only game in most towns, they take advantage of everyone.
