I was wondering if anyone here has ever required that their new vet take and pass a small oral test to actually test their knowledge?
I'm going to be going to two new vets and I really want to ask them a few questions to test their knowledge. Basically, it would be three short questions. But I'm afraid they'll think I'm some know-it-all jackass. I only want to ask them because some of my previous vets didn't know this stuff and they should've. They should've learned it in veterinary school and their lack of knowledge caused one of my cats to die prematurely. I could tell these two vets all that, but they'll still probably think I'm a jackass. But if they don't know common, important things that make the difference between life and death, then they shouldn't even be a vet and I really don't want to go to them.
So... I'm not sure what to do. Has anyone else done anything like this?
