Hello everyone!
I had a triple whammy this week, three different vet appointments on three different days, two of them turning into what I thought were emergencies. One required carrying a heavy Mo by foot and bus (and he puked en route which was super bad since it was a long trip, and he was quite constipated) and then a cab home to keep him from yarking again; one required wrangling my uncle in to give me a ride and keep the conversation of the visit's price and frequency secret from his wife; and one was just a checkup where I thankfully had my boyfriend to drive.
Long story short, I'm out a small fortune and I'm glad this week is over.
Now a question out of curiosity:
Mo and Kismet were new patients at this vet (and we love them!) and Mo's was $92 + tax for an office visit, Kismet's wellness visit with vaccines was $120. My avian vet charges $90 on first visits and $60 on rechecks. This is in a large city in Canada. In smaller cities, I've been charged $60 for the first visit (without any testing or vaccinations).
