That's right, I remember one of our YT members had that exact same experience. Also that was just the feeling I get from Banfield, not expert. Esp being first seen by a vet student, even the docs didn't seem very knowledgeable.

Another thing I forgot about that occurred during Uni's visit when she was 6 mos old. The Dr look a glance at her eyes and suggest she see an opthamologist to get a quote for surgery on her tear ducts.
