Location: Texas | I can't give you much help relative to repro with Finley. However, with lameness he's excellent! I used to drive 4 hrs one way just to use him when I was in college. |

Location: DUMPING CATS AND PIGS IN TEXAS :) | Dr. Cramer did a really nice job on a old maiden mare for me this year. They caught her first try. I'd certainly use him again. |

| I wont ever use them again. I was treated very rudely and was left with an open mare and a $700 bill. When I asked Findley why he thought she didnt take his reply was She just didnt. Me being the smart a** that I am replied NO SH*T. But why? He wasnt friendly. AT ALL. THeir over priced and not the friendliest people in the world. They even called to chew me out about a $15 balance that had to be paid immediately. AFTER I had already called and was told my balance was $0. It took them 2 weeks to get an u/s on my mare put into their system.
The only reason I used them was they are 15 min from my house. That was a lesson learned.
I took the same mare to my usual vet the same day Findley was an a** and a month later I saw the heartbeat of the Frostburns baby she is cooking.

Location: Opelousas, LA | Dr. Cramer for sure, honestly comparing the two is like comparing apples to oranges. I like Findley Sr. but I have had too many issues with them over billing us and our clients, since most race owners just pay the bill, the clinic gets away with it over and over again. |

Location: DUMPING CATS AND PIGS IN TEXAS :) | Another thing about Dr. Cramer.....he has a vet named, Mark, that works with him and, Mark, went above and beyond for me. He went as far as giving me his cell phone number to call with any questions. I'm not sure what questions I would have had, but he was just making himself available if I needed anything, which I thought was pretty cool. I, also, took the stud there for collection and I was in and out in under 20 minutes.....which was, also, a nice experience. |
