We went to DownMaine today for the first time and just WOW! What an amazing experience. They were able to get my two cats and dog in for the same appointment, which made life so much easier for me! Dr Bishop was so friendly, easy to talk to, and patient when I asked a slew of questions. I’m so glad we switched to them. Michelle the tech was also super awesome too! And my pets loved everyone as much as I did.

I brought my dog, Peanut in. I couldn't afford, to pay the cost for me to to cover what the bill would be if I had Dr. Harman address certain issues. So Dr.Harman and Michelle ( a tech) made me an offer to address her issues. Michelle also offered to adopt her., at no cost to me. Although, I was totally heartbroken, I agreed. It's a sad state of affairs, when a individual has to resort to that because I work at a low paying job. Dr Harman would not hear of any sort of payment plan.... Meanwhile, a day or two later Peanut was euthanized by Dr.Harman. When I brought Peanut in she was in no danger of any immediate illness. Truly, if the animal hospital had any heart or kindness whatsoever they would of offered Peanut back to me. She very much coul of lived with me. I lost a major love in my life and vice versa . Again, I stress Peanut was not in anything close to perishing. This place should be rated 0 stars. By accident I hit 5 stars. Really, it's a major tragedy in my life, and Peanuts. Awful experience, I wish I never went there ,and had gone to Ridge animal hospital. Just a tide bit of extra information, I brought Peanut in for absolutely immediate non life threatening problems.

Service was ok, had to wait a long time to be seen with an appointment. Cost was very high, $128.oo just for 1 time ear drops, $28.00 for two pills to gorg my puppy before I bring him in so they can look in his ears,(next visit). I told them several times I didn't want them but they insisted, I had the same meds at home. Cost,$341.00 in total. We're on a fixed income. I feel we were railroaded. My boy still has pain tonight. First time my visit was not good. My advise, ask the cost of the service they plan on providing.
