I, too, have many issues with this article. This person is, in my opinion, at the very least jaded. I cannot and will not believe the preponderance of vets are in the state of mind described. I may live on the "sunny side" of life, but I'm staying there! I have a great vet, have for 25 years or so, and will continue to put my faith in her.
You, as the consumer, are in a "buyer beware" situation. You should know your pet and should have a vet you believe in to make the best decisions with your input and the pet's best interest in mind.
