Yes, our Vet said it was beyond their area of expertise. We could choose between the specialists in Southfield, or go up to Michigan State. We chose State. It was 49 miles, door-to-door, and was a wonderful experience - considering the severity of the injury. Grady was there for just 48 hours, and during that time they called us about 6 times with updates. Better communication than at a people hospital!!

The cost was just under $1300 - about half of what the specialists in Southfield would have charged. That's because MSU is taxpayer supported. They also had a pay plan for those who could not pay the total cost at one time.
