I would also report them to the State organization that oversees vets...........but get another vet to request the records first.  You need them.

My vet says the medical records are the physical property of the practice and it is entirely up to the vet whether or not they want to release a copy.  Of course my vet will if I want.
 
I don't think it is right, but apparently it is the law.
 
I wouldn't hesitate to change vets and let them know why.
 
Some vets are not good with grieving people.  My last vet's staff were so awful to me when I lost a kitten I won't even go back in there for any reason.
 
I'm sorry you are having to deal with this.

Hi all,
    I ask for the records on Dukee they won't release them to me. They said the only way they would release them if another Vet requested them. Then it would be by fax only.
This is the first time I have ever been turned down getting any Vet records.
Is this right?
I can tell you I'm getting disappointed in some Vets in the area I moved to.
