This will help. The only way he'll get over his fears is if you help him through them. Don't coo and coddle him. Sit in the waiting room, set him on the floor and let him deal with it. If you hug and squeeze him and tell him it's ok while he's anxious, you're telling him that there IS something to be afraid of and his reaction is appropriate..... He'll never be ok at the vet unless he goes there frequently enough and has fun instead of always being poked and prodded.
