Taking care of your pet involves multiple things, including picking the right food, getting them exercise and of course having a veterinarian. And finding the right veterinarian is extremely important.
But the real question is why is finding the right vet so critical? Why do you need to pick one vet over another? When it comes to vets, there are certain things to keep in mind, including what their specialty might be or even what their availability might be.
We wanted to ask the experts their thoughts on finding the right and why it is important. And luckily for us, we did get some insight from Crystal Litzenberger, who is not only a vet tech, but also a consultant for Lolahemp.
According to Litzenberger, here is why picking the right vet is so important. "Finding a veterinarian you can communicate with and trust is absolutely essential. If you're not understanding what they're saying about your pet's care, or you avoid contacting them because it's not a positive experience, then you're doing your pet a disservice."
Finding the right veterinarian is important for peace of mind
As someone who has struggled in the past with a vet who didn't listen and just try to push meds without finding out the exact problem, I understand the importance of finding the right professionals. You don't want someone who dismisses your concerns or who doesn't seem to care about you and your pet.
At the same time, we have to point out that having a vet who specializes in what your pet needs is also critical. You might not have a dog or a cat. Maybe you have a lizard or a turtle that needs a veterinarian. Then you need a vet who is familiar with these types of pets. This is a big reason why it is important to do your research as well.
If you have ever struggled to find a veterinarian that you and your pet connects with, just know that you are not alone.
