Your True PTO vs No Negative Accrual: A Game Changer for DVMs
Taking time off shouldn't come with a side of anxiety. That's where our True PTO makes all the difference. Forget about the old stress of negative accrual and having to catch up. True PTO protects your base pay - no ifs, ands, or buts. The true benefit? Our veterinarians consistently pocket more cash than they typically would have if they did not have negative accrual. It's not just about avoiding financial penalties for taking a break; it's about genuinely benefiting from it.
