WARNING: Comment from RO Member lough59: I had a horrific experience with a vet (Dr. Billy Harper, at this same clinic) who assured me he was rabbit savvy, when clearly he was not! He administered Oral Amoxicillinto my rabbit and continued to do so after I ordered him to discontinue it. When she developed severe diarrhea, he treated her again with the Amoxicillin. She languished for over 2 weeks then died in my arms on the way to the ER! The vet refuses to return my calls.
WARNING: Comment from H.A.R.E (HRS): DO NOT ACCEPT THE SERVICES OF ANY VETERINARIAN AT THIS HOSPITAL, OTHER THAN DR. MANN, FOR YOUR RABBIT. WE KNOW OF AT LEAST ONE CASE IN WHICH ONE OF THEIR VETS--WHO CLAIMED TO BE EXPERIENCED WITH RABBITS--PRESCRIBED ORAL AMOXYCILLIN, RESULTING IN THE DEATH OF THE RABBIT.

He...saved Preston's life TWICE when (Preston) was a baby...(helped Preston, Willy and Emilio survive) a bout of coccidia...He was willing to use a controversial drug (Chloramphenicol) to eradicate Bordetella Bronquiseptica...(Preston) made a dramatic improvement in 3 days! He's alive today because of Barsch. He (also) saved Lilly...(when) she had endometriosis...He uses Iso, and is willing to do whatever to save a bunny. He kisses them when they come in,too...and they all seem to like him -- isn't that weird?

Comments: They see rabbits for the Tampa Bay HRS, and they see *all* of the Bunniesareus bunnies (my babies ;-)). They operated on Bundles and did it efficiently, at a very reasonable price. They are caring for Wee Willy Wonka['s] severe bladder sludge. I'm impressed by their [commitment]. They are wonderful vets, very compassionate women...and the bunnies love them.

Comments: They see rabbits for the Tampa Bay HRS, and they see *all* of the Bunniesareus bunnies (my babies ;-)). They operated on Bundles and did it efficiently, at a very reasonable price. They are caring for Wee Willy Wonka['s] severe bladder sludge. I'm impressed by their [commitment]. They are wonderful vets, very compassionate women...and the bunnies love them.
