Hi, all. After a day my dog went for
cesarean for 500dollars at pet clinic at Toa Payoh
Lor 8, the stitches on its womb somehow came off. Its internal
organs like intestine and liver came out. And when i when back to
the pet clinic, the vet claims that my dog had bitten it off by
itself. So i was charged for another 300dollars. Luckily, my dog
survived. Till now i'm puzzled how the stitch came off... What i
saw was that the stitches weren't even damaged. The vet sewed the
womb at 3 different positions along the cut. If my dog had bitten
the stitches, for sure, the stitches on the outside will come out
first. But instead, the organs came out in between the gaps of the
stiches. Of course, i went to consult another vet surgeon, he
laughed away that, there's no way the stitches will be bitten off
so easily. Also i went back to the clinic, and the helper admitted
that the surgeon did not did the job properly, the helper was the
one who stitched up the cut. But i made a call to the surgeon and
he denied everything and dared me. So i would like to seek advice
and help out here. Thanks!( If you want to see the photo, please
email me at [email protected])(Btw, the stitches had different
layers, and around looks like this --l---l---l--) | (-) = the
cut (l) the stitch. Sorry for bad illustrations! Really hope
for some advice from u folks!
Oh My God! it sounds very terrible, i feel sorry that your dog
had to go through the unnecessary suffering that was caused by the
incompetent and irresponsible vet surgeon. Such practices should be
reported.I have a labrador that I love very dearly and can't
imagine such a thing happening to him.
If it's financially feasible, your parents or you, I don't know
how old you are, may want to file a civil suit against this vet or
you may want to tell this story with pictures of what happened to
your dog to the press so that the public will know about this lousy
and incompetent and irresponsible vet and will not patronise the
place. Don't think you can report him to the cops as this is not a
criminal case.
