When taking your pet in for an exam, what does your vet do as a standard? I took my cat in and I felt like I didn't have his full attention. I expected him to give my pet a complete exam to include an eye, ear, and heart check. Instead he just asked what's going on and did what little he had to do and left the room. I don't know if this is normal. I felt like I didn't get my money's worth. Wham, bam, thank you ma'mam.
Another item worth mentioning is that I brought in an insect speciman to be identified a month or so ago I found in the house and the vet said he didn't know what it was. When taking the cat in on Friday, I brought the same specimans again in a jar and he said it was flea larvae. Gross I know but figured it had to be cat related because it was found only where he sleeps.
Also, an aquaintance said he didn't do a GS spay correctly and her dog got an infection from continuous bleeding. Another vet checked her dog and it was found that part of the uterous was still there.
I know a lot of people who have gone to this vet because he's the closest and never heard anything negative before this.
I'm just wondering if I should change vets. He really is a nice person though.
