Neurological Center For Animals

I agree with the other reviewer. Dr. Luttgen is pompous, unprofessional and just wants to take your money. I went to her looking for a 2^nd opinion on an MRI and she told me the MRI I brought to her was of such poor quality that she would need to to her own in order to give me a diagnosis. She criticized the education and training of the neurologist who performed the MRI, going so far as to research her online right in front of me, and tell me stories about what an awful person the doctor under whom she trained was.
Further, AFTER I’d already had Dr. Luttgen do the second MRI, another neurologist confirmed that my original MRI was, in fact, diagnostic, making the 2^nd one unnecessary.
To top it all off, Dr. Luttgen left the catheter in my dog’s leg without telling me, apparently in hopes of convincing me to have her perform surgery immediately. When I called her the next morning to tell her she’d left it in, she actually laughed and simply dismissed it as a mistake.
In my attempts to seek reimbursement for the unnecessary MRI, Dr. Luttgen made several statements about myself and my experience with her that are blatant lies.
Do not take your pets her. She has no qualms about lying to or about you.

The doctor here is the WORST vet ever… She made me think my dog (which had cancer) would be able to survive the disease with her treatment. Instead I was charged thousands of dollars for procedures my dog didn’t need causing it to have to be put down. She clearly is only out for money and her own gain. To top it all off, at a time of need she was rude, unprofessional and pompous to deal with. Take your animal elsewhere and avoid her and her money grubbing ways.
