I think doctors,dentists,and veterinarians are just out of touch with what an average persons income is and what they can afford. I’m perfectly healthy and so is my family (thank goodness) and we do have insurance through work but my poor dog has no insurance what do we do for her? I think if doctors(all doctors) were made to quote prices in advance then the lower priced doctors would get more business and prices would start dropping. Rather than use the entire US population in a huge experiment why don’t we implement health reform for veterinarians and see how that works first.
