Nothing like reading the yelp reviews of your own vet to accidentally trigger your anxiety on a Saturday morning.

(I thought I was clicking through to leave a google review, and the only reason I was seeing them at all was to check their hours for when I could go pick up antibiotics for my iguana today. I've had nothing but good experiences with them! But now my brain's like "aaaaAAA."

It'll be fine, but: bleh. I know negative response bias is a thing, but anxiety doesn't care abt logic)

@hummingrain Man, I wish there were a filter for angry one-star reviews from soccer mom's named "Karen." ;p Yeah, if my experiences reading restaurant reviews apply to vets, they're probably fine.

First thing I do with any restaurant is filter by worst rating and see how many of the one-stars are stuff like "was closed at 9:56 pm on a Monday, site said was upon until 10:00, how DARE you." I think a lot of people just want a place to vent when they're frustrated, and can't tell the difference between "genuinely badly run place" and "my feelings were briefly hurt by a misunderstanding."

What sort of stuff were people complaining about?

@hummingrain And oops, I missed your last paragraph at first, it's early—you're streets ahead of me on this. <3
