I brought my dog to Southern Oregon Veterinary Specialty Center due to neurological issues, specifically grandmal seizures. They charged me $1100, kept her overnight, and administered medication without my consent, exceeding my budget. They refuse to provide a prescription for seizure medication unless I pay an additional $400, which I cannot afford. I need an RX for seizure meds like phenobarbital and Keppra to manage her condition at home. What can I do?
