Actually, I really like the music. Better than listening to heavy breathing and the pulse oximeter. Dr. Webb — I love this song but can’t find anywhere to download. Any tips? Nice spay by the way — this vis helped me prepare for my junior surgery rotation.
@kissesofsunshine Oncology is really fabulous. I wish there was a more effective cure for, particularly in dogs, hemangiosarcoma. I don’t know if that cancer is common in humans or not, but it’s really deadly. It seems as if all dogs with cancer die very soon from their disease. It’s heartbreaking. I lost a dog to cancer recently, and it’s very hard. I suppose she inspired me, somewhat.
Wow, I didn’t expect the residency to last THAT long. So after undergraduate school, graduate, plus residency and internships….that’s over twelve years! I will barely be a freshman next fall at the UofA. But I don’t find it too deterring. I can’t really see myself as anybody that isn’t constantly learning.
At least it sounds like you have some leanings to what you might want to consider, and that’s great! I am sure your peers are experiencing the same thing. Oncology sounds wonderful.
@kissesofsunshine Zoo residencies are very difficult. 4 years of post DVM education + the GPA required for the residency/internship. I’ve considered going to medical school after veterinary school. I love being a veterinarian, but I enjoy research… I think doing medical and veterinary research (particularly in oncology) would be nice. I don’t know what I want to do though. ^_^ I might wind up in a surgery residency for vetmed. My future is so up in the air!
Thanks so much! I hear Cornell only accepts 86 students or so a year…..haha. I am interested in their dual DVM/PhD program :O. So any encouragement is great. Although, if I do go to any other school, it wouldn’t make me any less of a vet….just a little harder to find a zoo position
Best of luck to you! Cornell is very hard, very expensive, but very worth it. The best vets I’ve known all went to Cornell. I know one particularly well-known Diplomate of the ACVS who is just fantastic. Best of luck, again. You’ll make it!
Oh, please. This routine surgery is nothing compared to some of the huge whack orthopedic stuff in my orthopedic rotation in vet school. If you don’t have a strong stomach, pick something other than vet medicine. I promise, it’s not glamorous. Especially when you’re elbow deep in a momma cow trying to dig out her stillbirth calf. Or you have a necrotic small bowel to operate on. This is nothing!
Oh wow.. I thought I wanted to be a vet.. but the way he is digging inside of that dog changed my mind.. Can anyone who is a vet, or knows about it at least, tell me who doesn’t do surgeries, but can still do physical examinations, vaccinations, and other things, like a nurse would if we were talking about the human field. I know about assistants, and technicians.. but assistants don’t do as much as I would like to, and technicians do more. So I’m kinda stuck. Thanks in advance!

All the surgery fields that are marked with REQ must be filled when searched for

The song fits PERFECTLY, it makes it sound like they have a time limit before the dog dies and they work as fast as they can.

This video really helpful for me. But what happens if you do not have enough thread while sewing the skin together?
