My future bro in-law accidently ran over our one year dog, Gremlin. Now its right eyes is severely injured. It has been three days since the accident and its eyes isn't getting better. Though my sister brought her to the Vet on the day she got hit, the eye is getting worse and worse.
So, me and sisters took her in to government vet again today. We didn't go back to the first vet clinic because we had experienced bad service there before, especially from the vet doctor.
Well, the doctor said that the eye is unlikely to be saved. She cleaned the eye, put some eye medicine and also eye spray. She said the eye is damaged and 'dead' already, so we just have to wait for the eye ball to come off by itself or maybe the 'dead' eye will remain there but blind.
My heart just sank to hear all that but of course i am grateful that she is alive and that there is no other injury caused from the accident. She might lose her right sight but she will never lose our love. She is a strong little dog.
We were charged RM25 only for 3 days medical check starting tomorrow. That's cheap as expected because we use government medical service. And of course i am happy with their service. They care more about animal than profit compared to private vet clinics.
In one private clinic that i used to visit, if you refused any doc advice, they will be like... okay, don't blame me if your pet dies just because you disagree on RM500-700 medical fees. And guess what, with that medical fees, when asked what are the chances for survival, they said 50/50. Right. It's like you are paying that amount to get your pet die. I had two Rottweiler died in their care. I am not going to repeat the same mistake bringing my pet there anymore. I spent quite high amount seeking their medical attention and my pet eventually died under their care.
Not only me having problem with this clinic, last year, a group of people filed a complaint and of course brought this matter to the public by publishing this on a local newspaper.
Before anyone of you decide to make an appointment with vet private clinic, try avoid Century Animals Medical Centre in Penampang, Kota Kinabalu. Goggle this clinic and you'll find out more bad reviews on this clinic. The vet's name is Dr. Dennis. Try talk to him at 10pm, he will definitely shout at you on the phone for calling him at that hour, but on his name card - 24hours on call? Think twice before printing out your name card Doc!
Enough with Dr. Dennis. At least Gremlin is not under his care but we were charged RM115 for when we first brought Gremlin to his clinic on the day Gremlin got hit. At that time we had no choice but to bring her there because it was on Sunday!
