Female Large Animal Vets- safety in regards to clients
Hello!
I’m interested in maybe going into large animal medicine, and I was wondering what safety for women vets was like in regards to safety against clients.
There have been several instances of clients attacking(physically and verbally)/ threatening vets in a traditional clinic setting, and I am just worried about what could happen if a vet is alone in a rural area, especially for a late night farm call.
Is this a reasonable worry? What have you all experienced?
Thank you!
