Does it matter if I don't see the same vet every time?

• For most of your dog's life, you may visit the practice only for an annual checkup and vaccinations, and it is not likely to matter that you see a different veterinarian each time.
  
• If your dog is undergoing a complex course of treatment, however - following surgery, for example - most practices should provide continuity of treatment from the same veterinarian.
  
• If this is not possible, computerized and other precise records should guarantee that a doctor seeing your dog for the first time during its treatment is fully apprised of its condition.
