I have not had this problem. Ie: Spay incontinenece. I would too as well want a specialist consult to find out what is going on, and to receive meds that will have a good chance of working.

But one thing I always do is ask for a copy of every report, test, record etc; I even make sure to have the digital Xrays emailed to me. this is so I do have a complete health record to take with me where-ever I go.

In terms of requesting a referral from your vet; I agree don't worry about it, they are supposed to be a professional, just say that I want a referral to an IM at xxx, would like her seen by a specialist now.
