Sorry to hear about your dog.

In case everyone doesn't already know, there is a very large government state of the art Veterinary teaching hospital due to open soon on the highway in Takiab.
My brain is like an Internet browser; 12 tabs are open and 5 of them are not responding, there's a GIF playing in an endless loop,... and where is that annoying music coming from?

Russ, I'm really sorry about your dog - I know how it feels, believe me.

Just over a year ago, I wrote a thread on here about exactly the same vet who, through sheer negligence, was responsible for the death of my German Shepherd.

A few months later, I extended the thread to cover the vet on soi 55/1 (parallel to Chomsin Road) after he messed up a simple operation and caused the death of our Golden Retriever.

We now have a local mobile vet here in Paknampran, who visits us to give our pets routine check-overs, injections, etc.

As hhfarang has pointed out, there is a new veterinary teaching hospital being built on the left side of the main Petkhasem Road (just before the new army golf course if coming south) by Kasetsart University, which has several campuses in Thailand and has a very good reputation. The last time we inquired, they said it would be opening this year.

We recently had a serious problem with one of our dogs and our local vet advised us to go to the main Kasetsart Campus in Nakhon Pathom (Kamphaengsaen District), about a 2 hour drive from here.
They have a public animal hospital there and all the diagnostic equipment you can think of.
They were very thorough and we were very impressed - and it certainly wasn't expensive.

The difference is, I suppose, that universities strive for excellence while private vets appear to be only profit-motivated.
