I am flabbergasted as I sit here. I just brought Gabby home from her vaccine appt. When we got there- I asked if seeing the vet was nessecary as I need to keep the $ down as much as possible, and he charges to look at her. The girl said she would have to check. Well- after about 20 minutes, the vet came in and had Gabby's chart and was reading what looked like alot of handwriting. He said-"you know when you come in with an attitude like this, I have to tell you- do you want us to give away the place?"He went on to explain that at Gabby's last visit when she had a "reaction" to the Lepto- Yes, I would be charged for him to see her. He said 'my doctor gave
me a staff infection and he charged me 65 thousand dollars to get rid of his mistake!"
What he was referring to was- Gabby had a large painful lump where she got the shot and I had called to complain and that I wanted her seen by someone(I was worried about her)and that I shouldn't be charged for it. Apparently the girl that took my call that day wrote a ton of stuff in Gabby's chart about me. I called later that day to cancel seeing him because I called my breeder and she explained this was normal given that Gabby is so small. We've always gotten along with this vet, and I'm so sorry now that I called that day and said anything at all to the girl-I wasn't nasty to her-just insistent that something was wrong with my dog. I'm going to keep going to him- but I wonder--anyone else ever have trouble with their vet offices?
