I'd be annoyed too.
Most vets believe that liver compromised dogs need low protein but don't take the type into consideration. If that is the case, you may not do much better with another vet. Since this pup is symptomatic, I would probably lower the protein a bit just to see if it helps. Does she ever get shaky?
