Jess, same as bo's question and cat's answer. Is there anyone who's advice / support resonates with you? If so, then certainly request them.
For the new members, if you make a request and there's a decline by the "vet", I would be sure it would not be intended to offend you. Some vets really are just too busy or would rather work with members as they can.
Makes sense. I'm not really sure.
