Veterinary professionals receive unacceptable levels of abuse, which is often perpetuated by the media.
The real truth is very rarely what the pet owner claims, or what the media reports.
Yes, veterinary practices are a business. We do need to make a profit in order to continue to purchase and pay for the equipment and medications that allows us to do our jobs in diagnosing and treating pets. We are also human beings that need to pay for a roof over our heads, send our children to school, and put food on the table.
Please be kind to your vet 🙏
In response to a recent article that aired on A Current Affair last week, we have issued the following statement.
As a veterinary industry, we will stick together.
