re: Is there a bigger rip off than veterinarians?

I worked with veterinarians years ago and their insurance was going up every year. There were multiple ones at the clinic and each billed differently. There was the one everyone loved (her hallway would be filled with Xmas presents and cards every year from clients). She would tell people alternatives to the $80 dog arthritis meds, and anti-anxiety meds, and was more conservative with ordering tests and X-rays.

The old guy would order a bit more tests right off, for many of the pets that came in sick. There are some that absolutely love animals and won’t do anything that’s not absolutely necessary, but you have to find them. They’re probably also making a lot less money.
