Want some opinions on this

What would you do?
Took my 4 yo in yesterday to get immunizations. She had her health check in August but at the time they did not have all the imm. necessary so If I remember correctly I opted to wait until they had them all before getting any done. We get there yesterday and the doctor gives her 5 shots, including the flu shot. Then as I'm checking out, the lady at the front desk says she didn't need all those shots, she only need the flu and one immun. So I ask the doctor who says he "didn't see where she had them back in august" I don't remember her getting ANY shots back in august, but they had them listed in her shot record as having had them...then they gave them to her again yesterday. So, either they aren't keeping records right or they just double dosed her.
I started checking on this Doc and the Georgia Medical Board has no record of him. But I can only find his first initial and last name. The office won't give me his full first name. The practice is listed under another doctor, who IS licensed. But it seems this particular one is not. Though he is passing himself off as an MD.
I plan to obtain copies of my kids records from their office then file a complaint against him. Any one else ever been through something like this?
