I agree, wholeheartedly!
My girls are seen for annual check-ups, etc., and immediately if I observe anything I "feel" is off.
And, if I have an "emergency", they are taken in ahead of waiting patients.
Why?
Because my Vet knows that I take care of them, I'm never late for an appointment, never cancel an appointment at the last minute, never have felt the need to complain in the nearly 15 years of our relationship.
It's very wise to build a good relationship woth your Vet, because there almost always comes a time, when you need him/her immediately!
And, when they get older, and develop diseases, such as in my Sydney's CRF, they "know" what is "normal", and not "normal" for their patients. |
