Veterinary salaries remain modest, but job security's great
August 1st 2008Veterinarians' salaries continue to rank near the low end of those within the health-care field, but DVMs job security and job-growth prospects are among the best, according to the U.S. Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).
Don't expect clients to do things the hard way
August 1st 2008I think a lot of veterinarians see poor compliance because they ask clients to do things that are all but impossible. For example, say you're treating a dog that has a horrible ear infection, and you would need to manhandle the dog to get an ear drop in. And then you tell the client to give the dog three drops a day at home. The client can't do that.
