Talking to the emergency vet in Mt Roskill it's clear there is still a dire shortage of vets both here and Australia. She said while the vet schools are full the dropout rates are very high. The schools are trying to determine why.
She suggested graduate expectations were too high. Many not prepared for the long hours, only wanting to deal with small animals, etc etc
