Craig,

This policy actually has been in place under Dr. Payne, but was less followed by the staff. However, when you go to any Dr's office anymore payment is now required up front. When anyone does not pay their bills that cost has to be passed on to other clients which is bad business and why payment is required up front. Think about a Dr that works in a hospital all of their medical equipment is paid for by the hospital. Whereas a vet clinic has to pay for 40-100,000 dollar machinery on their own. I actually worked for Dr. Ray was a relief vet at this clinic before he took over this clinic and find your statement on his compassion baseless. Dr. Ray ran the clinic the same way he does now that he did on the days he worked there as a relief vet. As someone that has been in a room with clients I know that Dr. Ray usually tries to offer several options, but if you cannot afford any of those options it is on you. If you cannot afford to own an animal and care for it, you shouldn't!!!!!

Under Dr. Payne, Leitchfield Veterinary Clinic was kind and compassionate, and would even come in outside office hours if you were in need. If an animal was suffering and needed euthanisation, Dr. Payne and his son would perform the service free of charge.

Now that Dr. Payne has retired and Dr. Ray has taken over the practice, things have changed for the worse. Payment in full is required up front for any service, including euthanisation, and staff will not work with you to defray the cost or come up with a payment plan. While the reception staff are friendly and sympathetic, their office manager is decidedly not, and will treat you like a bum who has come in off the street for a handout if you cannot afford to pay. If you have a pet in pain and suffering, Dr. Ray's office will let it die a lingering death before lifting one finger to help you unless you pay the cost for treatment in full. I have never heard of a veterinarian's office treating a grieving pet owner so shabbily as I have personally experienced here. I cannot warn people away enough, especially those who have grown accustomed to the warmth and compassion that was the hallmark of Dr. Payne's time with the clinic.
