Everyone says he's such a good doctor! Dunno. To mom, the doctors nowdays think of patients as just a number, not a person anymore.

Now mom really likes our vet. She took me and Sundance in for our annual checkup and "pinch" and the minute Dr. Steve looked at mom he asked her if her back was bothering her. Just by looking at her he knew something was wrong!
Now THAT'S what I call a doctor!!!

Wow! Maybe your mom can have the vet treat her! MOL! He can’t do much worse than the doctors 😠 are doing.

Yeah, he "retired" 3 years ago. He sold his practice to a young woman vet so she owns the place and he works a few days a week. He's down to only 2 days a week now. He's been mom's vet for over 30 years! He was Aragorn's vet! Mom doesn't know who to go to once he retires for good.

We were blessed in that when our vet retired, his practice was taken over by a vet we like. No prescribing unnecessary medications, she doesn’t try to get as much money as she can out of people. I’ve heard other clients of her say the same thing. A previous vet prescribed thyroid medicine for Rosco that he didn’t need. Our vet took him off of it immediately.

Yes, that's what mom worries about. Dr. Steve always did say he starts with the least expensive test and works his way up. He said why start with $1,000 tests when the answer might be found with a simple low $$$ test.

Moms just don't cooperate all the time! We understand, Andy.
