my experience with UF was that they also wanted to do very expensive testing. they failed to run basic chemistry blood tests despite my dog being there for 5 days in their ICU. As a pharmacist, I saw many mistakes and when I brought them up was given a credit on the bill. unfortunately, the damage was done on my dog who was not treated properly for seizures and continued with them for over two years before having to be put to sleep. It was obvious from reading the notes I ultimately asked for, that no attending vet did anything--it was all first year residents. it was a horrible experience. I now will go to private practice specialists who have more clinical experience when I need something for my animals.
