Well since my sister is a Critical Care vet, I also use regular Vets close to my house for normal check up type stuff. Like I mentioned before, she works at the hospital and is not a partner. That means she can't give me any great discounts where she works. She comes and does their shots and check ups and stuff at home, but if I need to have an ear or something checked out on one of my dogs I go to a local place.

I always look for females. I personally think they care more. I also try to find a younger female, one that isn't 50 years out of Vet school if you know what I mean. From there I just go with my gut feeling. I find it pretty easy to tell if someone actually cares or not. Of course I can run their diagnosis passed my sister so it helps to confirm my gut feeling.


People, whenever possible, BUY PET INSURANCE. $30 a month is nothing compared to even a single $5000 visit to the Doctor.
