Hope that more vet clinics resist this urge to incorporate. One that I went to briefly was a corporation here in Wisconsin. My dog was perfectly healthy on Friday, became ill due to their actions - but they refused to see her the very next day. By Monday she was dead. They seemed to only want to charge as many fees as they could when they saw her and had no time for her less than 24 hours later. The emergency vet clinic was useless. What they charged on Monday to save her was outrageous. But they certainly wanted that money. But they certainly did not care.

our vet retired and sold the practice to a corporation. A simple dental that cost 350 is now 800. Costs of medication are way up. They used to have 24 hour small animal care, thats gone. Costs up, service down.
