the BEST little doggie there ever was!
Stempy - March 2005 - 7 years old
It is our firm belief that Stempy is a victim of  VETERINARY NEGLIGENCE & SUBSTANDARD CARE   that resulted in his preventable death at the hands of

COMPLAINT TEXT


Music is: "Mission: Impossible" (...approximately 85% to 90% of ALL veterinary complaints reported to State Boards are DISMISSED before they ever even reach the conference level...SOMETHING IS TERRIBLY WRONG WITH THOSE NUMBERS!!! Who will STEP UP and hold veterinarians ACCOUNTABLE for their actions?!)


Below is the text of our original complaint we mailed to the Board. All of the facts and evidence were included as attachments and are included on this website on the other pages. This website is our complaint in online form for all the world to see. It truly is Mission: Impossible to get the Texas Vet Board to hold guilty vets accountable. Why does the Board protect vets, not pets?


TEXT OF THE OFFICIAL COMPLAINT MAILED TO THE TSBVME

OUR 8 YEAR OLD AKC CHAMPION-SIRED MALE SHIH TZU, STEMPY, PASSED AWAY ON 9/30/05….THREE DAYS AFTER SURGERY PERFORMED BY DR. ANN THOMAS FOR BLADDER STONES. WE ARE CONVINCED THAT HIS DEATH WAS A DIRECT RESULT OF THE NEGLIGENT CARE AND/OR LACK OF CARE PROVIDED BY DR. THOMAS. THIS NEGLIGENCE CONCERNS ALL ASPECTS OF STEMPY’S CARE DATING BACK TO NOVEMBER 2003, WHEN DR. THOMAS SAW STEMPY FOR THE FIRST TIME FOR BLADDER STONES, AND CULMINATES IN STEMPY’S UNTIMELY AND PREVENTABLE DEATH ON SEPTEMBER 30, 2005. ATTACHED YOU WILL FIND A TIMELINE OF EVENTS OF THE NEGLIGENT CARE PROVIDED STEMPY BY DR. THOMAS, ALONG WITH SEVERAL PROMINENT VETERINARY OPINIONS REGARDING THE CARE AND TREATMENT OF UROLITHIASIS IN CANINES. ALSO ATTACHED ARE A COPY OF STEMPY’S RECORDS WITH DR. THOMAS THAT REINFORCES OUR CLAIM OF SUBSTANDARD AND NEGLIGENT CARE. THERE IS NO DOUBT IN OUR MINDS THAT DR. THOMAS PROVIDED SUBSTANDARD CARE, AND AFTER REVIEWING THE AFOREMENTIONED ATTACHMENTS, WE FEEL THAT YOU, TOO, WILL COMPLETELY AGREE WITH US THAT THE CARE WAS SUBSTANDARD AND NEGLIGENT. WE LOOK FORWARD TO YOUR RESPONSE.

---- GREG AND CINDY MUNSON.
























If you love your pet, NEVER blindly trust your vet!

In our opinion, ANN K. THOMAS, DVM is an incompetent vet based on our experience with her and we would NEVER, UNDER ANY CIRCUMSTANCES, recommend her to anybody with a pet!
In our opinion, Stempy is also a victim of the TEXAS STATE BOARD OF VETERINARY MEDICAL EXAMINERS' complaint system that is supposed to PROTECT OUR PETS, but, instead,
may very well be protecting GUILTY VETS!  Approximately 85% to 90% of ALL consumer complaints filed in Texas against veterinarians are DISMISSED as no violation found!
