Malpractice insurance is a VERY big thing. Vets don't get sued that often but even the best doctor usually gets sued a few times during the career.

Hell one of my friends is a radiologist and all he did was look at an xray for a colleague (providing no official diagnosis) and is now being sued by that patient as part of a bigger suit. To top it off ... the original suit is pretty baseless but they'll still likely get a settlement because that's how insurance settlements work.
