The quality of staff who support the vets in an animal clinic makes a big difference for the service you're getting. Support staff can often set the tone of you and your pet's experience at the clinic and so staff that create an open, safe space are definitely valuable. It's easy to find out the quality of the support staff by going in to speak with them yourself and ask your questions, and also phoning can be advantageous in this way.
