Marek Veterinary Clinic, Inc

Yesterday evening my mom called me crying to please come help her that my brother had ran over her sweet dog Blue, my mom being ill herself just got out of surgery and isn't getting around well. Not knowing how bad the situation was or wasnt and not wanting the Blue to suffer I called the Dr Marek becuase my mother had used him in the past. I then not even properly clothed becuase of the urgency, lifted Blue into the back of my SUV and rushed Blue to Dr. Mareks clinic so that I could get the situation assessed for my mom. Upon her being looked at the Dr stated she was in shock and that they wanted to give her pain meds and fluids through the night and it would cost somewhere around 500.00 to 800.00 dollars and that tomorrow they could stay her and see what's going on at the point if she made it. I then called my mom who let me know my father hadnt got paid yet and they didn't have that kind of money all at once but asked me if she could make payments, I also tried to express to Dr. Mareks assistant that I wasn't sure what to do becuase the amount they were asking for my mom doesn't have at this time. I also recommend her to take the time to call my mom and let her know as well as was hoping theu could work something out. She pretty much refused, she then started to insult me by asking me my age and why my mom needed to take care of it. Basically downing me for not having the ability to do something myself, Im not really sure what planet in her mind that she lives on that she honestly assumes that everyone walks around with an extra almost 1,000 dollars in their pocket. I love animals but have never had one myself or dealt with veterinarians. So for others who may not know what to expect, please note that unless you have several hundred dollars on you when it comes to an emergency situation with a pet call and ask every question you can before choosing a clinic. Also to Dr Marek and the lovely lady who took a few shots at judging me yesterday , get to know someone and thier situations before you treat them like utter garbage.... The situation itself was hard enough without you being so unkind. Had I seen a Dog on the side of the ride hurt that wasn't my moms I would've rushed them in the same way, wether I had the income or not becuase I had no understanding of how vets deal with patients or costs. However I think most human beings would try and do something rather than nothing. It's called a heart, grow one!

Our fur baby, Lucy, had stomach surgery late yesterday for ingesting a washcloth. I just found out that our "Angel in Disquise' is Dr. Dennis Marek. In his concern for his patient and the late hour of the rushed surgery, he stayed at his clinic through night and slept on the couch to keep an eye on Lucy! Our pets, both large and small, have benefited from his skill and compassionate care for over 2 decades...but this has touched our hearts forever. Thank you, Dr. Dennis!
