I visited this animal cancer center after my cat was diagnosed with cancer, and my experience was profoundly disappointing. Reflecting on the days we spent seeing Dr. Parsons brings back feelings of sadness, anger, and despair. I found Dr. Parsons, as a vet oncologist, lacking in both professional competence and empathy necessary for dealing with animal patients and their families. 1. Lack of Professionalism: Dr. Parsons seemed uncomfortable and even scared of cats. She was reluctant to perform physical exams on my seriously ill cat, always maintaining a distance and labeling my cat as 'too aggressive', insisting on sedatives for examinations. However, when visiting other clinics, the general docs could examine my cat without sedation, noting that excessive sedatives are harmful. When it came to administering medication, Dr. Parsons was not helpful. She declared it impossible to medicate my cat due to its temperament. As a pet owner, this left me feeling hopeless. In contrast, our general vet immediately showed me how to administer the medication, even recording a video for me to practice at home, which eventually led to successful medication for my cat. 2. Lack of Empathy: Dr. Parsons displayed a lack of concern for my cat and disrespect towards me as a cat owner. Her indifference was palpable, especially during the advanced stages of my cat's cancer. The only sources of support during this time were our cat's general and eye vet doctors, who showed immense kindness and support. My advice to other pet owners: If you have a choice, I would recommend seeking treatment elsewhere
