Glad you found a specialist you like. And got a good prognosis! Oakley is lucky to have such a devoted mom.
We have a big expensive vet specialty place here but when Nicky had corneal ulcers, we we're told we could either go there or to a Dr. Wolf, former professor, now semi-retired, very small practice, ophthalmology for animals only. OMG he was wonderful and much less expensive than the 'Taj Mahal" of vet practices. Best was that he was so wonderful with Nicky. Finding him was a miracle, and we have referred several other people to him.
Love word of mouth references from satisfied customers.
