My current vet has been scaring me into getting annual shots. Now I feel so guilty for doing it.

Does anyone have any suggestions on how to find a good vet? Also what questions should I ask them?

Thanks.

It takes some effort but you are on the right track... basically I just called around and asked about
1. vaccine recommendations
2. if anything was REQUIRED
3. if they would except my cats medical exemption for rabies
off the topic of vaccines...
4. I asked how long it typically took to get an appointment
5.if they had same day appointments if your pet was very sick
6. what their emergency fee was
7. where they referred emergencies after hours
