Re: Hostility towards veterinarians

Thanks everyone, I've gotten a lot of good feedback that I can hopefully use when I get out into practice.

One thing that I think is difficult for many people to understand is that just because a certain test doesn't result in a diagnosis it doesn't mean that it was unnecessary. For instance, say your German Shepherd had a hip problem. They are very prone to hip dysplasia, which requires radiographs. If the x-rays do not reveal any problems with the hips and the diagnosis was a sprain, does that mean the x-rays were unnecessary?
