Veterinarian liability: get free advice

Questioner

About 3 weeks ago I took my French bulldog, who was just 4 years old, to the vet. For a week I noticed that he was in pain. On Monday we went to the doctor and I was given painkillers until Friday. On Friday we had to come back and a laparoscopy would be performed on my dog. In the afternoon I was called to come and get him. Half an hour later I was called again to say he had died. Now I know that French bulldogs are very sensitive to anesthesia. That is why they are only allowed to have a gas anesthesia, because it is less intense and they can tolerate it. When I went to bring my dog ​​on that Friday, I said that they are sensitive to anesthesia. I was told that they knew this and would take it into account. I contacted my vet today to ask if they had given him a gas anesthesia. I was told that this was not the case and that he had a normal anesthesia. Can I hold the vet liable for this?

Lawyer

In general, it is not immediately possible to say whether he is liable. This depends on whether there are shortcomings that can also be attributed to him and also whether he has violated his duty of care. Whether this is indeed the case must be assessed and also depends on what agreements have been made on both sides. If you wish, you can contact me directly and free of charge for consultation.
