"A vet is guilty of professional negligence if they don’t meet the standard of care based on what other vets would reasonably do in the same circumstances. Negligence is harm, loss, injury, or damage of some sort. For example, a vet might prescribe an inappropriate course of treatment and your pet dies or is permanently injured as a result." My golden retriever had an issue with his ear. We mistakenly took him to Cheam View Veterinary Hospital. This butchery clinic charged us $2000.00 for 2 botched surgery attempts and, according to a real vet, the surgeries were done WRONG. Also, the real vet told us that because the surgery was done wrong, they cant go in and fix the damage that was done. Because of their negligence, my dog's ear had started to go necrotic (tissue dying) and as a result of the botched jobs, will now most likely lose his ear. According to the real vet, my dog has been in extreme pain for 3 weeks now because of the butchery done to him at this place.
