Read about my cat Nina

On 6/23/07 during a routine check-up, the vet recommended that I have Nina’s teeth cleaned. My cat had a history of a heart murmur so I scheduled an echocardiogram to determine if it would be safe. On 7/7/07 Dr. Neil Harpster performed the procedure and noted 3 times in his notes that she had "mild to moderate enlargement of the left atrium", but did not tell us. On 7/17/07, Nina was anesthesized and had her teeth cleaned. On August 12th Nina suffered congestive heart failure and was admitted to critical care at Angell Memorial Hospital. The diagnosis was restrictive cardiomyopathy which is a fatal condition with a life expectancy of less than a year. Over the next 4 weeks Nina was treated on an outpatient basis at Angell. Her condition did not improve and on 9/5/07, we had her euthanized. We filed a claim against VCA. The adjuster stated in his denial of our claim, that we “declined to have all of the recommended treatment and your cat was discharged “at owner’s risk” 10 hours after admission according to the Angell Memorial records… and you did not have some medical care performed due to financial reasons.” However, Dr. Nevena Nikolajevic, the cardiologist who actually treated Nina at Angell wrote that she “had frequent telephone calls and in person conversations with Mrs. Kadis and I (Dr. Nikolajevic) felt she had followed all my instructions to try and make Nina better and had never refused to have any medical test or treatment done that was suggested.”

Editorial review from Citysearch

VCA Rotherwood Animal Hospital is by far the best veterinary office in the Newton/Brookline/Cambridge/Boston area. I have three dogs who have been seeing Dr. Tamara Kremer Mecabell since 2009. Each of my dogs has their own special issues; Dr. Kremer has always been sensitive to their needs, recommending the best treatment to make sure that the dog fully recovers. I have also used VCA Rotherwood for dog emergencies, in fact it's the first place I go when one of my dogs has an emergency. The staff are extremely experienced when dealing with an animal emergency, making sure there is no...
