My experience rates a “D” in my opinion. The DVM profession seems to have fallen under the same forces of profit making that plague the health care industry, i.e. somewhat of an assembly line feeling when you go in and a strong propensity to charge exorbitantly for each item provided or service performed. Ask what the office visit will cost before you go in. That’s not so bad. Before a test is done, blood drawn or X-Ray, ask about their cost. Don’t be surprised if your minimum bill is $300-$500 or more for a quick check of your pet. Its not all about money with your beloved pet but ask so you know. The doctor in this case was obviously in a hurry. They want to order the tests and move on to the next pet owner. At this point, they really don’t have much data to go on until the tests come back. I had a feeling the time allocated per pet/person is about six minutes. Maybe enough time for the Vet to get an initial look but certainly not enough time for the pet owners to feel good about the interaction with the veterinarian or time to think about the pet’s initial prognosis. Before any work is done, ask about all costs. Plan some questions before you get in.
