I would definitely complain he has no bedside manner and he should have been nicer and explained things before he said that. I have never been told what you have but the one time I had to take Callie to the ER vet because she was limping badly and would not put her front leg down the vet was pretty much a jerk and acting like I interrupted his whole day when no one else was at the vet. He looked at her walk (she had stopped limping at the vet) and barley felt her leg and thought she was fine but we pressed for xrays and they saw nothing so that was it. Well the next day we went to our normal vet who looked at the xrays and then said that most dogs adrenaline kicks in and they don't always show there pain when they are at like the vet and she felt around her leg and found a spot that made her cry therefore showing there was a problem and she had to go to the orthopedic surgeon who found that she over extended her leg when she jumped down and we needed to limit jumping down. I have yet to be impressed with any er vet by stories like this and what I experienced. I wonder if maybe vets office put the vets that have no bed side manner on the Emergency staff or something. It really bothers me that a vet who should know how people love there animals would be so cold to say what he did. I am sorry and glad your baby is doing better.
