Emotional Industry
Busy Practice
I would recommend that anyone considering working at VSH long term, keep in mind the emotional side of the specialty industry. All of our patients are coming to us with chronic or sometimes life-threatening issues. This can take a toll on the parents that love them and the employees that empathize with the patient and client. I wouldn't say this is a con per say as it also provides an amazing opportunity to give and find meaning in your career. But, it is something to keep in mind. It's important to take care of yourself so you can take care of others.
VSH is a high volume practice. You will ALWAYS be busy. Some people strive in this type of atmosphere and some do not. It's important to know that you like working in a practice where you're always busy.
