Pros

Compensation is on the high end. Open concept is good for clients.

Cons

One of the reasons I left was the quality of medicine and not referring things that needed to be referred. Really sick things would sit for days because "we do it best" when they actually needed a real internist or criticalist, not an ER doctor a year and a half out of school. Now at a referral practice, we get some records that are just cringeworthy.

Pros

Clients get to stay with their pets-this is so beneficial for helping the patients feel reassured and comforted during their stay.

Cons

The work ethic of the support staff is deplorable. There is chronic laziness throughout the staff (except for a few staff members who consistently work hard). VEG is known for hiring really young DVMs, and although they complete the 1 yr NERD program, many come out unprepared, are practicing medicine without continued mentorship, make grave medical errors, misdiagnose, and are incompetent surgeons.
