Dr bloom has a rude disposition and is just after your money. He very obviously will try to push a money grab with no concern for your actual pets health. Don't fall for it! Go elsewhere!

I only go here because there aren't any other options. I moved to the area for grad school not too long ago, and needed a place to continue to refill my cat's (extremely necessary) daily allergy medication. As others have mentioned, communication and appointment scheduling was a struggle from the beginning. I got bumped from my initial appointment about a week before the appointment was supposed to be, and every appointment since then has taken twice as long as I've thought reasonable.

I get that they're probably overwhelmed with patients, but that doesn't make the experience any better. Communication is also very hit or miss, as I have had to ask multiple times for a quote for a procedure, and often feel like I'm imposing when I call with questions for the front desk. I was hoping for a smooth transition from my previous vet, but it was anything but that.

When making my initial appointment, there seemed to be a lot of confusion about what my/my cats needs were, and I had to answer the same questions multiple times. All I wanted was to continue what we had been doing with the old vet, but they seemed extremely reluctant to do so. Also, for some reason they always ask the same questions about his history at every appointment as if they keep no record of him as an existing patient.

This is very annoying and confusing, I have never had a vet do this. They also haven't taken the time to form a connection with my cat, who is usually extremely friendly and loves everyone. He is now terrified whenever I have to bring him in for an appointment, which was not the case at my old vet. They once had to draw his blood for a checkup, and he was so distraught that they sent us home and told me to come back another time after giving him some anti-anxiety medicine. Again, this has never happened at any of his other vets. Finally, as others have also said, they are extremely expensive.

I know there aren't any cheap vets, but they don't do a very good job of explaining why the course of action is necessary and if there are any other options, which leaves me feeling very distrustful.

I was referred to Bloom Dermatology after my cat's atopic dermatitis was unresponsive to diet, Atopica, and antibiotics. He had had allergy testing at our primary vet. He currently requires steroid injections every 3 months. I waited roughly three months for an appointment with Dr. Bloom. The cat's current medical records were faxed ahead of time by our local veterinarian. Livonia is a two hour drive from my home so we left early and arrived at 9am for our 10am appt.

I called the number on my new patient forms and this number rang without a greeting or voicemail. I called a different number I found via Google at 9:03 and told them we had arrived early in case there was a possibility of fitting us in before our scheduled time. They told us to stay in the parking lot and they would call if an earlier appointment would be possible.

At 9:43 I received a call from the vet tech to get our cat's history and to let me know the vet would be calling. I received another call at 10:39 from the vet, again requesting the cat's medical history. The cat was then picked up curbside, and we were asked not to leave the parking lot. At 11:40ish the tech called and said they were running behind and the vet was still going over records.

The tech then came to the car with an estimate listing the various procedures and cost, and to get my credit card and sign the consent. Note: A "nail trim" was included on the estimate for an extra couple of dollars so I deleted that item. I voiced concern that the paperwork said to be prepared for a 2-3 hour visit. I had a child expecting me to come to his soccer game at 3:00.

Now we were informed that the cat would be another three hours, at best, since they were behind. She went inside and I talked to my spouse about options. We decided we should leave and reschedule with another practice. I walked to the locked office door, very upset, and called inside. It rang busy. I called back and watched as the receptionist picked up and hung up the phone.

I called back a third time and told her we needed to leave now. She said the tech would call us back. Another few minutes, another call from the tech, then another call from the vet. I asked for the cat to be released. The tech came to our car around 12:00 with the cat and a bill for $500. I was not aware they had done more than an office visit with my cat since I was told they had not started with him.

Already $500 in, I told them to just proceed with the estimate. We left for IKEA while they performed the allergy and other tests and received a voicemail (bad reception at IKEA) at 1:34 saying they were finished and to call upon our return. We called from the parking lot at 2:17. The receptionist had to call us back with the total charges--over $2600.

Another long break until the tech was able to come out with the cat and the discharge instructions. We finally left at 2:59 when the neighbor was picking our child up for us. TWENTY SIX calls were made during the six hour, $2600 appointment. Poor communication and terrible service. I am not sure how this business does it. I will not be back nor recommend this practice to my primary office.

I had never visited the Bloom Clinic until I ran a local search. My regular Vet had no appointments that fit my short schedule. The staff at Bloom welcomed us in the very same day I called. They completed my dogs exam and shot update and went above and beyond to ensure the paperwork we needed for international travel was completed properly with a low cost.

I can't thank Sue and her staff enough for their help with a short schedule and specific needs. We're very grateful for your professionalism and time. Thanks again from Cece and I.

I have been taking my dog, Kirby, to Dr. Bloom for over 10 years. When other standard veterinary clinics failed to accurately pinpoint what was causing Kirby's terrible allergy symptoms, Dr. Bloom discovered the root of the issue which allowed him to be able to specifically treat Kirby. The hours that need to be spent with your pet in order to accurately and appropriately treat him, are NOT in vain. Dr. Bloom and his staff are incredibly knowledgeable, patient and kind.

It is evident that they truly love animals and want to see them living their best lives and feeling good. Kirby is 14 years old now and I credit his long happy life to Dr. Bloom being able to treat his specific needs.

Save your money! My wife was ready to scream by the time she got out of this place. These doctors have no real game plan for resolving issues, they are more interested in running up unnecessary charges and keeping you running with follow up appointments. In addition, she spent a total of 3 hours waiting for them to figure out how they were going to treat our dog.

My wife finally asked for a round of steroids and medication to treat a yeast infection in his ear and paws. So we are now in $600 for something we could have gone to our regular Vet for at a fraction of the cost. I could go on and on. Very disappointed!

Hi My dog began battling allergies beginning of the summer 2019. He had seen multiple vets -And all kinds of allergy medications and baths and creams....it had turned into ringworm. What a nightmare!Working diligently with two different veterinary clinics, he still was quarantined in his large crate for almost 7 months! Absolutely heartbreaking. He got to go out every day and run his acre fenced in yard, but other than that it was just so terrible.

Finally the ringworm went away,But the vet worried maybe there was a secondary non-glowing type of ringworm, or unidentified skin issue that may still be contagious On top of his allergy condition!We were thankful, but needed to see a specialist to be sure he could join the family!We went to Dr. Bloom. He was so kind, he was very thorough and understood Mogli‘s history the past year.

He took time and asked many questions. He was able to do tests to be sure my dog was 100% clear all types of ringworm, and any kind of contagious skin infection. He was also able to get my dog off of all anti-histamine’s and allergy medications! He told me new types of bathing to try, which are working fantastic and also prescribed a steroid that for now has completely stopped the non stop itching!!

He does have a new hair growth, and the lesions that were so sore on his face are healing! He also was Thorough enough to realize my dog had a ear infection that was extremely deep in the ear the other vets hadn’t seen! It’s only been a week since our visit.My dog is feeling better now than he has in seven months! And today, he will re-join the family!

My heart is in my throat, and I am so grateful he is finally on the mend! I cannot wait for him to run with my other two dogs today in his yard, and I get to snuggle him close tonight! So thankful we’re on the path to recovery! So thankful I have my sidekick back! I am very grateful for Dr. Bloom and the staff and their ability to help my boy begin to heal after such a long road!! I only wish I would’ve found Dr. Bloom sooner!

Quiet/peaceful atmosphere for me and my cat. Staff and Dr. Bloom are gentle and compassionate with my Coco and listen to all concerns while addressing them. Dr. Bloom diagnosed a lifetime disease of IBS quickly and gave me medication to try. Coco constantly vomited her food and since she has been on this medication, she has not vomited once and she is 16. My only regret is that I didn’t find Dr. Bloom sooner. Many thanks for all they do and I highly recommend them.

TLDR; We are $3,000 deep in tests and treatment and still don't know what my dog is allergic to. Full review: This place is SO expensive. We came here because my dog has pretty bad allergies and their website was very encouraging. My dog seems to be doing better so far which is the only reason we came back, but we will not be back after we leave today. (Who knows when that will be, we've been sitting in this room for 3 hours now!) The website says they go over all pricing before they provide treatment.

What they mean is they give you a huge range (over $1000 difference between the low and high), and say the total will "depend on what they find." Of course it ends up being the highest amount every time, and they will still charge you for all the test and treatment even if they don't find anything. They charged a few hundred dollars just to look for mites, then said "we didn't see any but they're hard to see so we'll treat her anyways." Why bother doing the test, then?

We're now on our third visit and we were again quoted a huge range for additional testing. When we said we can't afford that since we just paid thousands of dollars just a week ago, they shamed us for not wanting the best option for our dog. Dr. Bloom is also very "my way or the highway" and when I suggested an easier (and much cheaper) form of allergy testing that I heard good things about, he literally scoffed and said no. Even when the vet tech had agreed with me right before he came in the room.

I honestly cannot say enough good things about this vet. My anxious, fearful dog happily runs into the office knowing she's about to be spoiled with treats and pets. The entire staff is fear free and makes sure your dog is comfortable and happy before proceeding with anything medical. Allyssa and Kathryn treated Kitty (my dog) as if she was their own pet.

And Dr. Flannigan was so genuine, you can truly tell she is an animal lover. I no longer have to dread taking my dog to the vet. I know she is in good hands by people who really care about animals.

Dr Bloom and his staff were very gentle and thorough with our boy Truman. What a great find. Really appreciate the attention, thoughtfulness and care they gave our pup.

Beware - I do not recommend taking your pet here. I do not believe they have your pet in their best interest like they say they do. They are in it for the money, obviously. the prices and other reviews people have had with them. I wish I would have read the reviews before I came to this place! I have no issue spending the amount of money needed to help my fur child, but they didn't fix, nor couldn't find what he was allergic to. Stopped previous meds, sent home with a few items, waited on a culture, put on antibiotics And now my dog is in worst condition then when he went in there. Unbelievable!

So then the practice manager suggest us to bring him in for a follow up, another $160+ just to see him. This doesn't include testing, medications etc. this is just to step foot in their office. Heartless.

I have a 5 year old cat who has bad allergies. Every year they progressively got worse. I went to 5 different vets in my area only to be given the shoulder shrug with I am not sure why this is not working. After a year straight allergy attack and 3 different vets doing their own plan of attack I took her to Dr. Bloom. He listened and asked questions. Is it costly to come here depends.

He knows his stuff. I wish I would have come here earlier and not the other 3 vets I visited this year. With the treatments they gave me and their visits Dr. Bloom's fees were less. I feel better knowing in a short amount of time my baby will start to feel better and is under care of someone who can help her. Dr Bloom even saw how scared Maya was during her appointment and gave her medicine to give to her before he appointments.
