Not for me - I love my vets!!!
It is for a lady at work, whose partner's dog had to have an operation (a very standard, run of the mill operation) and who is now very poorly. Lady at work said that she felt uncomfortable about dropping the dog off but her partner (who owns the dog) assured her that the vet has had good feedback from people he's spoken to.
Lady at work said the place looked filthy and she begged partner to take the dog to her vets but he said he was sure everything would be fine.
Anyway, it is not. The dog is not well and my friend is very unhappy and expecting the worst.
Thing is, I have also heard of this vet and nothing that I've heard is good. I wouldn't let them near my animals, that's for sure. Basically, the vet is the cheapest for miles around and you get what you pay for!
So, lady at work is saying that if anything happens to the dog she will be wanting to take things further, and we were just wondering how easy it would be.
For example, how do you arrange a post mortem by another vet if you have concerns?
Also, assuming the animal is clinically stable to move, could lady at work have it transferred to her vets post-op?
Do you refer to the RCVS, like a human would refer a doctor to the GMC?
Advice gratefully received, thanks.
