Happy Vet Tech Week to all of our rockstar techs and assistants! ⭐️
They bring so much heart, skill, and patience to everything they do.
From our small animal crew to our equine team these ladies are always working hard and putting patient care at the front of everything they do.
We love you guys!! ❤️
National Vet Tech Week takes place every October to celebrate these hardworking superheroes of animal hospitals and clinics.
🩺What does a Vet Tech do?
Think of a vet tech as an animal nurse, lab scientist, dental hygienist, and X-ray technician all rolled into one person.
While the veterinarian (the doctor) diagnoses diseases and performs surgeries, veterinary technicians handle things like blood draws, running medical equipment, monitoring anesthesia, and restraining and caring for patients to keep them healthy and safe.
🫶Why do we celebrate them?
Being a vet tech is one of the hardest jobs in animal healthcare. It requires years of training, passing a national board exam to become a licensed tech, and tons of hard work. Techs often deal with long hours, heavy lifting, messy situations, and stressed pets, yet they show up every day with patience and love for their patients. ❤️
