Warning to all clients
Warning to all clients. Total Betrayal.
This vet named ''Sinead'' threatened us and called the RSPCA on us.
This vet prescribed COSOPT to an already blind cat and this medication is NOT for blind cats. But to prevent blindness and lower IOP for ONLY 8 hours at time. Temporary effect !!! This medication POISINED our cat and caused a Neurological SHOCK (SLOW HEART RATE, low blood pressure, COLLAPS).
Cosopt:
SHE GAMBLED WITH OUR CAT's wellbeing and prescription.
Viciously shouted and threatened us on phone. Refusing to release video, phone SAR. Hiding evidences.
Truned her back, BECAME SILENT, writing a misleading & incomplete report, which she forced us to forward to other vets, to cause further harm to our beloved cat. We have contacted RVC.
She MUFFLED her sentences like being posessed, barley wanting to respond to my questions during consult. Aggrevating & calling witnesses.
The vet initial promises on phone: faked positivity to have us onboard. A fake persona that became possessed & hostile later.
2. Lowering IOP in a blind cat does not restore vision, and the main “benefit” (preventing vision loss) is gone if the cat is already blind.
3. The drug still carries systemic risks, especially timolol in cats.
Upon attendance it was incompetent & almost ''hostile''. With even suggesting euthanasia in first 30 minutes, to our perfectly striving & living , eating boy. He chooses LIFE.
He does not want your euthanasia that VET Sinead, has potentially SOLD many times over the years. How do you sleep at night?
Vet prescribed incorrect meds COSOPT to our cats SCRATCHED eye, causing an adverse reaction. This vet did not follow ethical guidelines that requires full transparency, regarding their specialities.
They are not an Ophthalmologist & Dental specialist for more complex, long term and chronic diseases & they do not refer clients on to specialist referral hospitals with more training and machinery.
She, ''did not know the term'' Stomatitis & called our cats mouth issues ''mouth disease'. I had to correct her, as their report was written in the tone to influence and harm our cats future - in the next veterinary appointment. And included inappropriate commentary.
She completely ignored fight scratches.
Instead they offer immediate invasive procedures that are so far from the meaning of welfare - such PAINFUL (months long) extraction of teeth & eyes (enucleation), so nothing is left of the cats face (caved in mouth & eye holes). Before suggesting further tests & correct treatment.
How is this WELFARE ?
Meaning this is normal practice at this practice.
We have now been in touch with multiple (only few) London Referral Hospitals specialising in Glaucoma in cats, & they have informed that vets should always offer the option for a referral to help the animal/cat, before prescribing any medications that can harm other ORGANS (kidneys), & before a specialist takes a look.
This was confirmed in the specialist Hospital.
Receptionist, ignored us standing on the phone chatting to a friend.
HER REPORT:
1. Stomatitis bacteria/dirt formulated around the teeth/gums that causes inflammation & injection due to bacteria that needs to be cleaned. She completely excluded this.
2. The vets hypothesis in the first 5 minutes, was that our cat has cancer.
3. She took blood in an incorrect & invasive manner, pocking directly in the mouth, that actually is considered as poor practice method & in many cases spreads the cancer cells if they are present.
5. She proposed euthanasia in the first 30 minutes. Which is absolutely appealing & incompetent from a vet.
6. Cancer was not present & she did not add such significant notes into the very incomplete and lacking report.
7. Majority of their procedures are extractions and injury, emergency operations. Which ARE completely different from specialist vets.
This is a new clinic, and many such clinics aim is to sign on clients, earn the invested moneys back.
Not interested to REFFER CLIENTS ON TO OTHER CLINICS.
This would mean losing possible clients and operations.
