The OP spelling some words wrong or not capitalized is the furthest thing from her mind. Give her a break.

Circumstances
I've had accounts where family members names' were okay and some that weren't.  If they're dictating a health care proxy and their phone number, I can see where that's important.  With the other patient's name though, while yes that patient's medical record is kept confidential and is only shared with her treating physicians, it is not the business of her physicians to know the name of the gentleman unless they are also treating him.  That's my understanding at least.  For example, if you mess up and send a cc to the wrong doctor, that's considered a patient care error because it's a violation of HIPAA or so I've been told.  Which is what led me to believe that including the other patient's name was a violation as well.  I blanked it and put HIPPA violation? in the note so we'll see what my account says!
A vet should NOT put you off under these circumstances. They should work

Under no circumstances should you contact the doctors. Never do that. nm

It is up to the individual person and their circumstances
Personally, I could not afford to wait three months and "hang on." I have bills to pay and children depending on my paycheck. I just left a job where I "hung on" for 6 months and it was the worst thing I ever did. And guess what, I am not even putting this place on my resume because the place is an embarrassment. I am putting that I did IC during that time, because I had to do that to supplement my income. Saying tsk tsk you did not give it long enough is like saying tsk tsk you did not try that relationship out well enough or long enough, when the signs were there that you were being battered. Personally, I say trust your instinct. Communicate professionally with your supervisor and point out about the equipment, and the set up not going well. Have a good self-esteem (don't put anyone down) and let them know that you are seeking a mutually-beneficial business relationship and you'd like to have your concerns cleared up. You may do this is a nonthreatening manner. Then, sit back and see the way they react. If they treat you like a dime a dozen, then you will be less than that after 3 months, trust me. If they fix the problems and tend to your needs, then you will probably want to hang on. That is IMHO. And from personal experience, I have made the mistake of "letting them work it out with my waiting" and guess who got screwed, and it certainly was not them. Good luck in what you choose, but only you can know what is important to you. Trust that inner voice which is telling you what you need to do for you.
Depends on the circumstances of the termination.

If I were merely laid off due to low work or the company losing an account, I maybe would reapply, but then you have to consider that it may happen again. 


If I were fired due some stupid reason like "downsizing" or offshoring or a QA issue, then I would not reapply.


Of course, I'm a prideful person by nature, so in any instance I may not reapply.
