Some people say that about my vets practice too, dongles, but why can't you make your appointment with whoever you prefer to see? Won't they let you ask for someone in particular?
The only time I book one of the other vets is if John is on holiday, or it is quite urgent and he is fully booked.
He actually said to me once that it makes their lives easier too, if clients stick with the same vet, as they get to know their patients better than when people keep swapping about seeing different people.
Makes sense to me from both sides.

Yes, would be good wouldn't it Tabs.
I said jokingly to my vet once, that I was grateful for the time he takes and how he explains everything clearly - unlike my GP.
He grinned and said - "Ah, but the difference is ... you're PAYING me.
True aint it.
