Dear Karen: You may want to talk to the vet personally instead. The first thing I thought was the receptionist new or fairly new? The receptionist could be uninformed! I use several vets all the time. I can spot the new personnel just by the way they handle me in different situations.
Actually, at my favorite vet clinic for the longest I could not stand the desk personnel. I had to learn to ignore them because I love the vets themselves! Now that the desk personnel got to know me which took a considerable period of time, they are wonderful! I especially can tell when there is new personnel at the desk there because of their attitude. I mostly lurk on this list because of the amount of rescue work I do. There is some weeks that I can read the messages everyday and some weeks I do not have time to read any! Excuse me of for asking this question! I do not know if you do cat rescue or not? Do you know any local volunteers for cat rescue in your area? They may know a vet to recommend that will treat your kitties. I have had customers from the PETsMART where we use their adoption center call me to ask me what vet I use for my cats. I am more then happy to call them back and refer a vet according to their cat(s) needs. I hope you find a vet soon that you will feel comfortable and secure with treating your cats!
