Vets do tend to get away with scams because people are easily manipulated.
"We did a blood test."
That'll be $100.
"Oh, hey, we suspect your dog has something going on. We need to do another blood test."
What do you suspect?
"Bleeding disorder."
So you want to stick him again in a different place to draw more blood for a so-called bleeding disorder when the original site isn't bleeding.
Should you do the test a third time to be extra sure? Maybe, just drain all of his blood and give it back to really be sure.
Vets piss me off. They are well-known scammers.

My former physician was like this. I honestly think she was a literal retard and had to run through a million tests or send you to specialists, when you already know what the frick is wrong with you.
She "retired" thank god.
