PTO rip-off; DVMs devalued - Associate Veterinarian Lakefield Veterinary Group Employee Review

Associate veterinarian

Recommend

CEO approval

Business Outlook

Pros

Good tech to doctor ratio; skilled techs

Cons

Management does not tell you that you have to use a PTO day for every holiday (ie, Christmas Labor Day etc) You lose 6 PTO days per year to this scam Also, they say they value support staff. What this means is that any complaint a staff member has with you goes directly to the hospital director, and yiu will receive a reprimand. You are not given a chance to respond or explain. DVMs feel like second class citizens.

Lakefield Veterinary Group Response

Thanks for taking the time to reach out and leave a review, and we are glad you had a great support team at your clinic. We apologize if there was a miscommunication about the number of paid days off. We value this feedback and have done training with our Area Managers to make it more clear about floating holidays during the hiring process.
