No worries! I knew what you meant. You would be shocked at the costs of running a practice and the reimbursement rates. When you go to the store and buy a gallon of milk and they charge $4.00, you are expected to pay the store $4. Imagine if you only paid $1, the store would have to eat the $3, yet still keep the lights on, pay employees, etc. That is kinda where we are in medicine. Dentists and vets are the ones making the money! I wish my husband was a specialist sometimes as their reimbursement rates are higher, but my husband loves what he does and is excellent at it. How many of us can say we love what we do. We don't live large, rarely take a vacation, but we are happy. I am sure if I was less expensive, we would be joyous! :floorlaugh:

I love animals and all, but that's pretty sad that treating an animal pays more (in essence, saying is worth more??) than treating a human.
