So My Dog is having surgery today on her ACL. I went with the emergency vet I saw last week instead of my normal vet because I liked his procedure more and it was less expensive. I just received a call from him stating that he received a call from my normal vet about a previous post dated check 4 years ago that had bounced. He was a little concerned with me writing one today because of what he heard from the other vet.
A little history in that.... They neglected to cash the check until a month after the date on the check and it was when bank of america was doing all of the fun stuff that cost me lots of money in over draft charges. They didn't even let me know that the check had bounced, just sent me to collections. I when i called about it I was told I was all paid up. I didn't know I was in collections until I was buying a house, I instantly paid it off and that was that. I have had many other visits with the normal vet and just paid at the time of service because it was easier and I had the money.
My question is... Wasn't it illegal for them to disclose previous transactions to another vet that is not connected with them. It almost cost my dog the surgery. I am very upset.
Please give me some advice.
