Im in the same boat.. these city vets are killn me all they want is your money! one of my cat pups had a swollen leg a few weeks ago the vet couldn't figure out what was wrong with him and still wanted 700.00 to treat him! I left soo pissed off. called a good ol boy vet about an hour away made the drive he only charged me 75.00 leg was fine in 2 days! that's a 625.00 difference WTH is goin on these days??
Did you have to pay for the first visit?
