Apparently, vets are in high demand right now. A friend of mine told me that the starting rates in any vet med field are higher than ever. How true is this?

I have not heard about this, but maybe it;s my chance to ask for a raise lol

It's true - vet med fields are highly sought after and the starting rates for veterinarians are indeed higher than ever.

With the increasing demand for pet health care, experienced vets can make a great living, and technology advancements have made more challenging treatments possible. It's an exciting time to be in the field of veterinary medicine!

According to Google: The median annual pay of a veterinarian in the United States was $93,830 in 2018, which is 17% higher than the average wage of all occupations. Furthermore, the top 10 percent of earners made more than $159,320.

Veterinary medicine is an incredibly rewarding profession and one that can offer great career opportunities for those looking for a fulfilling job.

Yes. They are really in demand right now. But the salary still depends on a lot of factors.

In demand? Yes. Higher starting rates? I don't think so.

Hey folks. Question for the majority of us still under the big 3 holding co’s...are raises a thing anymore? I’ve been at my (smaller) agency almost 5yrs and got one raise (a nice $12k bump) during that time—is that sufficient? Is one increase in that span normal? I also recognize being somewhere 5 years is rare these days. The honeymoon period at any agency seems to be 2.5—3yrs before bolting. Not complaining, just asking. Have y’all been getting raises/bumps in any kind of regular cycle? Thx.
