Olde Towne Fenton Veterinary Hospital: Beckman Tami D DVM 540 Gravois Road, Fenton, MO 63026

"We've been bringing our animals here for years (my husband's family even did when he was younger). I've always felt like we've gotten excellent care from both Dr. Miller and Dr. Beckeman. Over the last several years we've gotten to know Dr. Beckeman very well - we first started coming to her more due to scheduling- but now we ask for her because we have such a good relationship and she knows our pets. She's thorough, always explains things (two, three times if needed), is patient, and treats my animals as if they were her own. My daughters usually accompany me and Dr. Beckeman will answer their questions as well and has shared additional information with my 16 year old who has aspirations of being a vet. Heather and Juliana are great to work with too! The front office staff is friendly and accommodating and keeps things moving smoothly and quickly. Doctors aren't perfect and we must remember that...but I do believe that they come to work every day to do the best they can for our pets. I highly recommend both Dr. Beckeman and Dr. Miller."

"I have been taking my dogs to Fenton Veterinary for the last 19 years. In that time I have had 4 dogs. I currently have two 7 year old Dachshunds. On 15 August 2014, I took one of my dogs into the vet because he had been in a fight with a cat the day before, and he was not acting right, he was lethargic. The Vet was not immediately available so I left my dog in what I thought were the good hands of the vet and staff. I received a call later that day that I could pick up the dog, and that my dog who had been completely normal 2 days ago had CANCER! What about the cat fight? I was told that I probably just missed the signs of cancer, the blood test showed very low platelets, so it had to be cancer. Four days later and the third vet visit I was told my adorable dog had Fatty liver disease, because the platelets were back up but the liver enzymes were elevated. The Dog had not eaten or drank water on his own, I was force feeding him with a syringe for 4 days. This is the most important part. The evening of that third vet visit, I noticed that my dog had left the smallest amount of blood on my bedspread. When I did a thorough examination of my dog .. he had several small cuts on his chest that were swollen. My husband and I immediately took our dog to Webster Groves Animal Hospital. The nurse looked at me and informed me that they needed to shave the dogs chest and possibly legs... When the did they discovered that the cat that our dog was in a fight with had scratched his chest in 15 or more places, and he was suffering from a secondary infection. I wound up taking my dog to the Vet every 3 days from August through 3 November. When I stopped and informed Dr. Miller and the staff about what they had missed, and show them a picture. Dr. Miller said "We should have caught that!" No apology, no refund of the any part of the $610 that they charged me, not even a card! I will never recommend this veterinary clinic again nor will I subject my dogs to sub-standard care."
