Pros

Amazing exposure to diverse cases and cutting edge medicine.

Cons

Doctors here are overworked, undervalued and, quite frankly, some of the most miserable, unhappy people I've ever had the pleasure of working with. Work life balance is a myth. Micromanagement occurs in every level of the job. There are expectations of availability even when you're 'off'. Management bullies doctors. There is blatant favoritism. Successfully performing in this work environment should be accompanied by anti - anxiety and anti- depression medication followed by routine therapy.

On Behalf of Medical Director: We are very sorry to hear this response. It is our goal at the New Orleans hospital to foster a positive, collaborative environment. In the event that someone does not feel these benefits or needs additional support, our local management is always available and interested in understanding these issues and working on a resolution. We take our team member satisfaction and engagement very seriously. We work hard to ensure our team members are healthy and happy and are always looking for new and better ways we can improve this experience. Over the past couple of years, we have focused significantly on enhancing our Employee Experience, which has been in large part an initiative around doctor wellbeing, work-life integration and supporting individual career goals. Similarly, we have been focusing on stress management and wellbeing initiatives such as offering free subscriptions to mental wellbeing apps, a wellbeing room, along with our Employee Assistance Program with easy access to resources and more. We hope this will continue to support and promote healthy ways of dealing with stress so everyone can be the best version of themselves when they are doing what they love. We will continue prioritizing our Employee Experience and take patient care feedback seriously. We appreciate you sharing your voice. We would love to discuss your concerns and suggestions for improvement, so please feel free to reach out via email, phone call, teams message or text message.

Pros

The staff at the Commerce MedVet have been very supportive and helpful with teaching me the skills I was previously lacking. I got my first feline jugular blood draw and I was also given great tips about IV catheter placement.

Cons

I have no cons, the staff are very welcoming and if you want to learn they want to teach.
