Jan 21, 201115 yr First, I am not talking "high tech need a vet order" type of stuff. I am talking about having someone stay with him for a few hours so I can do errandswith the peace of mind that he is not alone due to medication and care (likea short walk for BR break.)Not everyone expects to or pays next to nothing for vet services. We have paidquite a lot in the last few years and most recently the last few weeks forspecialists. There is no magic wand to take away the dx, but we are veryhappy with the team of specialists/primary vets who are helping us.And we are happy to pay both the vets/staff for their expertise.Like I mentioned to the poster above, there needs to be more like you out there, because unfortunately with most prices for any type of veterinary services people simply complain, complain and complain.
Jan 21, 201115 yr The veterinarian that I worked for was the one who suggested I look into nursing school. Worked for him all through school and even after being hired as a nurse for a while. I always joke that I went into nursing because I like animals so much more than people! Same reason I could never do Peds.
Jan 22, 201115 yr Experts That is how I started also! If the money were even comparable I would have stayed although the opportunities and scheduling options with human nursing are way better.
