Do you belive in prescribing supplements for your patients?

Yes of course. That’s also standard in human medicine.

No because I'm not sure if patients are telling me the truth about what they are giving their animals as well as there are so many supplements that are fake out there and can be harmful to your pets.

They could lie to you or their human doctor about any medication or supplement…

I try to stay away from it. I might make a suggestion but I don't prescribe it

I would say if you do you should make sure the supplements are quality and made by reputable companies. Do extensive research

Supplements can be effective and we have used them to help our patients but shouldn't be the main component of at home care

What do you guys think about apps like BetterHelp and Talkspace? I understand they might have real therapists working on their content, but a lot of the marketing I see is so vague and broad that it feels like a lie. Seems like "This app got rid of my anxiety with a 30-minute automated text questionnaire" is the new "This tea made me lose 20 pounds in two weeks!" Just seems a little fad-like and money grabby to me. Thoughts?

I need help. I think I’m being underpaid at my job I’ve been at for 3 1/2 years. I’m a full time receptionist for a veterinary hospital but I also manage the reception area (I answer all questions and if someone makes a mistake I’m the one the fix it) and am an in house trained veterinary assistant but can do a techs job (unlicensed) and I do help the technicians out anytime they need and I’m only getting paid $13 an hour while a crew member at arbys gets paid $15 . What should I do ?

If you're being told "take your full lunch" (because by law you need to be given a certain amount of lunch depending on how many hours you work) but then you're told, if work's not done you need to stay until it is, and now people don't want to take their full lunches because it means they'll have to stay after work longer, is that coercion a violation of any federal labor laws?

I'm curious if anyone has insight about how different veterinary practice laws are from state to state (or province to province)?
