Also my vet:
  • Uses an electric razor to shave my cat's leg
  • Had 2 strangers fuddling with equipment quite loudly for several minutes
  • Had just given my cat a rabies shot


Gosh, I wonder if any of those things could raise blood pressure. They want to recheck the blood pressure in a week.

I would think any veterinarian worth his salt takes white coat syndrome into account when interpreting blood pressure results.

Ya, I always found that odd.
You're at the fucking doctors and being asked if you feel stressed.

Some people get more stressed at the doctors office than others.

True.
I just think it's odd that it as if those places are made to be stressful.
Like do we really need posters of body parts cutouts and shit on the walls?

How about getting a few fish tanks going or something.

Doctors use those to help explain conditions/injuries to their patients.

I can imagine, but maybe use them on case by case bases?

Yeah, I guess they could have a special exam room for people that loose their shit at the sight of a plastic kidney.
