The Bottom Line Even if they are a house doctor type, ask to see their place of business.
The day you plan on the addition to your home, whether it be a cat, dog, or bird, you must locate a Veterinarian, and make sure you find one that is close by. If you are not sure of who to choose, ask your family and friends for their advice on who they use, if they have animals. If not you can easily make your decision by visiting at least three or four offices. When visiting, look for cleanliness. You want to make sure their office, waiting room is clean and smells as good as possible, considering what time of day. If you get there early in the morning, chances are it smells better, then the afternoon, after 40 or so animals have waited in the lobby for their checkup. Speak with the doctor, and the assistants, and grab any brochures they may have about their service. Also make sure to look for or ask to see their credentials. Ask other questions too, like: How long have they been in business? How many "patients" do they see on a regular basis. Of course this may all be well and good, the point is, how would you feel in their care. You must think of the Vet as the way you would your very own doctor. How is their bedside manner, the care as they assist you in your sick time. As if you were sending a child to the doctor is how you should feel when sending your pet to the doctor. You should feel good knowing that you can trust them. If you feel on edge, or they offer reason for you to feel uncomfortable, then chances are you need to seek anoter Vet. The next step is be prepared with two Veterinarians, and make your first appointment with one, just for your pet to have his or her checkup or nails clipped. When you are there, you need to pay attention to how your pet gets along with the doctor. Pay attention to how the doctor as well. Does he or she give your pet the kind of treatment you desire? Once all these questions and needs are met, you have finally found the Veterinarian of your choice. One that will be sufficient for all your pets needs. My final words are, just as important as keeping up with your pets medical needs, it is also important to keep notice of any changes in the office personnel. If they change doctors, or add or remove certain assistants. You can never take for granted they will be just as nice as the last.  |
