You check in with your coworkers, anticipate what needs to happen next, and take initiative without losing sight of the patient in front of you. And yes, you're probably also the person who finds a few seconds to reassure a nervous dog or make friends with a skeptical cat.

If there's an area of veterinary medicine you're passionate about, we want to help you develop it. We support continuing education and professional growth, including opportunities to train that develops new skills or expands the services we can offer our patients.
