How do you chose a good vet?

[Sherri, Sophie, Winston, & Kitty]

I have an appointment on Wednesday afternoon with a potential new vet. I've been somewhat disappointed with my clinic, where I generally see whatever vet is on that day, and I wanted to see if I could find someone better with whom I can develop a good relationship with, and that doesn't have quite so out to lunch prices.

 

I'm a rather impressionable person who has a natural tendancy to automatically trust any kind of supposed expert or authority figure (doctor's lawyers, police, random ladies who work in pet shops, etc.) right off the bat, and I tend to get won over pretty quickly...which has led to many disappointments in the past.

 

I found some general articles via a google search, such as this one http://www.petplanner.ca/en/article/22  So I'm wondering what you guys think. When interviewing a new vet, what kinds of questions would you ask? What should I be looking for in a good quality vet? Having some objective criteria to look for will keep me from getting excited just cause she's nice or says what I want to hear...

I did this but there aren't that many on there. But this did remind me that there are a few forums on the net I can check out, or post asking for suggestions.
