This Vet is doesn't know most of basic medical treatments for horses. He will starve a horse for days with only water for simple colic. Won't even take an xray after a few days to confirm any diagnoses. After your horse has lost so much weight you find another vet who totally disagrees with Dr Buckmaster's diagnoses with have the horse back to health in a mater of 24hrs. Dr Buckmaster says one price for a visit then Bills so much more. He inflates all supply charges since his business is dying off fast, Watch you will be the next victim of his OVER PRICED BAD VET TREATMENT services. MORE HORSES DIE UNDER HIS CARE than any other in the So. Oregon County. BEWARE !!!

This individual's complaint doesn't ring true at all... Dr. Buckmaster has a master's degree in nutrition and is extremely knowledgable regarding all large animals, including camels! Anyone who's had horses for years understands you don't feed a horse with colic.

We have 4 mini-donkeys among other animals. My vet was not available when I needed him for a hoof absess in the youngest mini. I called Dr. Buckmaster, and even though they had a long day, they came that afternoon. They told me they would be here after 1PM. At 2PM, I received a call stating they would be there about 3:30 as they were attending animals whose problems took longer than expected. That is not uncommon in the field of veterinary medicine. You never know until you examine an animal how long you will be in attendance.

They showed up about 4PM, worked on the little guy for almost an hour, gave him two injections, provided me with the iodine we can't buy any more, gave me surgical cotton because all I had were plain cotton balls, looked at all our minerals, examined our other donkeys, gave me some good advice and the charge was minimal compared to other vets in the area. The following day, we received a follow up call to make sure our little one was doing OK and that we weren't having problems administering aid to him.

After the fact, I spoke with approximately 6 other people who also utilized Dr Buckmaster and they spoke VERY highly about him at two of the feed stores. We have heard many positive statements over the years and that's why I called him in this emergency. We have made the decision he will be our large animal vet from now on. We like our other vet, who is very good, but Buckmaster is closer and imparts more knowledge than others.
