      Surgical procedures for our dog were performed, however, post-op services were not properly administered. Typical follow up for post-op did not take place. Suture removal is unknown. Onsite employee altercation and removal from facilities was unnecessary.

      ************* brought her fur baby ******** in on 3/14/2024 for a dental with 3 growth removals 

      on pick up ************ came to get ******** at the time he was verbally told discharge instructions along with being handed a take home paper with those same instructions. On 4/9/2024 ************* called asking why haven't we called to set up an appt for the sutures to be removed. I then told ************* we do not call for suture removal appt you are to set that up before you leave with your pet the day of sx or to call and get pet on books ***** days post sx "this is also included on the paper with the discharge instructions that was sent home with Mr." *** stated well no one told me that. I then asked *** if she could bring p in next day to check suture area being it was now been 26 days since sx. *** started ******* stated she can't just change her day around to bring pet in. *** then made an appt for the following day on 4/10/24. After p was taken to the back to see ****************** for suture removal I ***** went and spoke with *** informing her going forward we will no longer accept her business here at the ******** location, she asked why I told her the way she cursed and yelled at my team the day before was uncalled for especially when I know my team gave her correct information. She then stated I wasn't even the one that picked up my husband then, I then stated then theres no way you can tell me my staff didn't tell him about the suture removal appt. I asked her did her husband bring home the paper she stated when she asked her husband yesterday he stated he didn't even read the paper. At this point I told o where she can see the miscommunication started at home and not here with my office staff. She then stated even if it's on the paper we need to call them next time. I told o there will be no next time. At that point she got angry started cursing telling me she's going to call the cops on me because I asked her to leave my lobby when she started yelling and cursing, "SHE STATED I WAS AN ANGRY BLACK WOMEN AND SHE FEELS THREATEN" she then proceeded to walk towards the door and called me  BI*** and a stupid CUN*, she then said Fu** you while walking out the door. ************ call the next day trying to figure out what went wrong and then stated he wanted a refund for the surgery since we were rude to his wife, I do have surveillance in my lobby and told mr he could come watch the camera and listen to how his wife was the aggressor etc. "he did not want to see"  he stated he will get a refund one way or another and hung up.

      They are wanting a refund from a surgery that was completed because they are no longer allowed at our hospital for services.

      please feel to reach out with any questions

      sorry for delay as this was sent to the wrong hospital and then that hospital sent it to me. "which the client knew this as they were also fired from this location"

      Complaint: 21557029

      I am rejecting this response because:
      We did not get the necessary post op care as part of the procedure.  We are unsure whether the stiches have been fully removed and was not informed one way or the other.

      Additionally, we should be refunded $100 for our cat's deposit for surgery as that did not take place and we did not cancel the appointment.

       


      Sincerely,
