JohnMorand Posted March 31, 2019 Report Share Posted March 31, 2019 My recent death of my dog, still upstairs, has caused me to question the professionalism of two vets. Christine at Pet Care in Riberas and Hector in Ajijic. Christine didn't call back and Hector didn't even come when his sister Carmen said he would. He said he would help me get Coca downstairs, but never showed up. Anybody else have problems with these vets? 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wookie Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I am so very sorry for your loss. These things don't normally happen. The deal is, however, I don't appreciate having such a sad thing as this picture sprung on me out of nowhere. We have all lost pets and it hurts like hell. If you call Dra. Bernice in the morning (Monday) I am sure she will help you remove the dog and have it cremated. I do hope you have contacted a friend before in the morning to help you remove it to a more appropriate place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
camillenparadise Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 Oh I am SO sorry for your loss!!!! I house and dog sit every summer, and I will never use either one of these "vets". Post mortem care is so very important! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cafemediterraneo Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 We've used Dr. Hector before and he was very caring and knowledgeable. So sorry for your loss and the difficulty in disposing of your dead friends body. Did either of these doctors ever see your dog as an alive patient? You called on a weekend, did you call back later on or call on a handyman or friend? The dog looks like a very large one and heavy. As for post mortem care, did you request cremation or burial or just disposition? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sue Posted April 1, 2019 Report Share Posted April 1, 2019 I have been rescuing dogs and cats for the 14 years I have been here and have had excellent treatment from Hector and his sister for both regular care as well as emergencies I would not take any of my furry family to anyone else. Getting upset at a Vet for not dropping everything and rushing to help you move a dead animal is a bit unfair did you bother to call back to see if there was an emergency with a live animal before you decided to publicly shame them??? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Natasha Posted April 2, 2019 Report Share Posted April 2, 2019 Not getting into this discussion except to note that the Dr. Hector in this post is in NO WAY connected to, nor is he, Dr. Hector Ladron of the Ladron Clinic. 1 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
