I think a good vet welcomes questions, ideas, thoughts, and discussion.

I think a vet who becomes defensive or impatient with questions and patients is really sending you an unintended message about how insecure they are in their knowledge.

As a former nurse, I've always thought that the *most* important component of good health care for yourself, or your pet - is advocacy and involvement in your own health (or pets)....bc I think that propels you toward seeking the best outcome, even if it means you have to move on from certain practitioners.
