      Complaint Type:
      Service or Repair Issues
      Status:
      Resolved
      On August 30, 2023, I took my dog in for an emergency splenectomy. The veterinarian reported he had to send the spleen to the lab to run tests to see if the tumors and mass were cancerous. Discharge paperwork states the results should have been in within 7 days, the veterinarian reiterated this at the time of discharge on August 31, 2023 when I picked up my dog after a 24 hour stay. On September 7th, I called and the hospital said the results were still pending and chalked it up to the holiday weekend. On September 9th, I called and the receptionist said the results were in and the doctor would call me later once the rush settled. A ER nurse called me that evening and said the results were still pending when I shared with her that I was told they were in, she said that was a mistake. I called the office back to ask for clarification. They put the Nurse back on and she said she would try to get a hold of the lab. She called me back and said the lab stated the sample was more complicated than expected and they anticipate getting the results in by September 14th, but they may come in sooner. I called on September 11th and there was no documentation that any of this correspondence happened and the results are still pending. Please note that I initiated every follow up call to inquire about the results. If I didn't call, the office would have never reached out about the results are. I'm concerned that the office lost the results and are buying time.

      NEVER TAKE YOUR PET TO PREMIER Veterinary in *********. For anything. We had an ************** was available sooner than the specialist in Bannockburn. The doctor on call, *********************** is also the director. She was unprofessional & lacking when we first went in February when all this first happened. The next day we saw a much nicer doctor who worked with the Vet Specialist in Bannockburn. Fast forward to tonight, she's one of 2 doctors available. I communicated my concerns & preference. The nurse told ****************** my opinion & then decided to " punish " us by not treating our dog. I'm shocked. How unprofessional. I asked to speak with her after they had us waste time waiting to be seen. I never raised my voice, swore, nothing. I reminded her as a ER doctor she is supposed to put the care of animals first. She's created more stress for her. Her response was that we are not allowed to go back there. Clearly it was a mistake to even go there but we wanted our dog to be cared for. So, here we are back at VSP where we should have been the whole time.****************** refused ********** **** were told we could wait several more hours for another doctor that might be available "after they did their rounds"There was no concern at all or empathy for my pet whatsoever. For an available doctor to delay care out of spite is cause for concern. Perhaps an ethics review is in order
