I'm terribly sorry you lost your friend. My experience with that Asian vet is this: He bought the practice from an older, well established White vet who was well regard and who I took my dogs a few times. He was very kind and gentle and looked with affection toward my dogs. The Asian vet to bought the practice was all professionalism and treated the animals as if he were treating any other thing that needed to be repaired.
I found a new vet when I realized this guy wasn't who I wanted treating my friends. I found a new practice of a bunch of White vets and started bringing my dogs to them. When the time came when I had to put my largest dog down (who was with me because my dad died and I couldn't bear to have her live with anyone else), they were kind and compassionate and extremely sympathetic. They asked if I wanted her remains or if I wanted her to be cremated, which I chose, and they said her ashes would be returned in a nice box.
About a week after, the office sent me a sympathy card signed by the staff, expressing their condolences. A few weeks later I picked up the ashes in the box, which I placed next to my dad's ashes, which I though was fitting.

Yeah, I'm never taking my dogs to anyone else.
