Starlight Veterinary Clinic: Donahue Carrie DVM 10902 Eckel Road, Blue Mounds, WI 53517

"Jean Elmer killed my mom’s dog by botching a surgery to remove a potential obstruction in the dog’s upper small intestine. After the surgery, Elmer reported that she was unable to find anything, apologized, and released the dog back to my mom. By the following morning, all three of Elmer’s surgery sites broke down and the dog died of sepsis within 16 hours post-surgery. An autopsy of the dog was performed by a prominent local area university vet clinic and the autopsy report supported that this was the cause of death for the dog. The story gets even worse regarding how poorly Elmer handled the situation, but I’m not going to go into it. There are a lot more reviews (34-36) including some very negative ones, if you search Starlight Veterinary Clinic rather than Starlight Vet Clinic. There was a review about how Elmer killed someone’s kitten during a declawing procedure – according to the review she gave the cat too much anesthesia. It seems that based on these reviews and my mom’s horrible experience, Jean Elmer has a history of making mistakes that end up hurting animals and in doing so, hurting the people that love those animals. If you’ve had a bad experience with Jean Elmer or Starlight Vet Clinic, you can submit a complaint to the State of Wisconsin Veterinary Board; just search that online. I’m sincerely glad for the people who report that they’ve had a positive experience with Starlight, but people who are considering taking their animals there for care should know that a lot of people do not have a good experience."

"The best. We drive 30 minutes and pass three other vet clinics on the way and it is 100% worth it! All of the staff is down to Earth, caring and comforting. I would highly recommend them!"

"Awesome experience. I brought in a feral cat and they have a great deal for vaccines, neutering, ear mites, fleas, and ticks for $80.00! Dr Jean and her staff also take goo good care of my indoor.cats and horses. Always very happy with them. Thanks very much."

"I’m taking all of my animals here, not only are they affordable but they take excellent care of my pets. When my dog was deathly ill they were accommodating and prompt, you can tell the staff has a good time and enjoys working there. Dr.Elmer is fantastic and professional. When I take my pets to starlight I know they’re getting the best care."

"Very freindly staff, prompt and very throughly on taking good care of your pet. Definitely will return even though it's 65 miles from my house. Well worth the drive for my Sammy"
