More and more veterinarians I know and respect are getting skewered in online reviews. These are people who give their all to their patients, only to find horrific things written about them in the most public forum of all. For people who care so much about the animals they treat, having this kind of venom aimed at them online is terribly distressing, even heartbreaking. It also hurts pet owners who see those bad reviews, choose not to go to that vet, and miss out on a doctor they might have loved working with.
