Submission Text
Requiring veterinarians to write an individual script for each medicine recommended will place an excessive time constraint on each appointment, or necessitate a staff person be hired just for this role.
This would cause the cost of veterinary serives to rise.
We are committed to charging appropriate fees, and applying sound medical advise.
