My Passion Towards Veterinary Medicine

A British actress named Hannah Murray once said, “I really loved animals when I was little - my friend and I had an imaginary vet 's office; we would mime doing surgery on animals. We treated more injuries than illnesses - fixing with a baby bear with a broken leg, removing a tumor. Of course, our surgeries would take about five seconds; that 's how good we were.” As far back as one girl can remember, she always had a pet of some kind. She currently has a pet dog, and she became sick, and would have seizures. When her mom and took her to the Vet’s office, she remembers how the doctor saved her dog’s life and how grateful she and her mother were to not lose a member of our family. The career of a veterinarian is a rewarding career, because one has the opportunity to care for beings who can’t for themselves. The research will describe the career of a veterinarian, what is required to become successful, and the impact this career has on society.

I used to tell my friends and teachers that I wanted to explore the medical field because that was what my family wanted me to do. They wanted me to become a doctor as it is a well praised profession that pays extremely well. As I grew older and entered middle school, I realized that becoming a doctor wasn’t something I was immensely interested in. Instead of a doctor, I wanted to become a veterinarian, treating animals instead of people. I’ve become aware of my passion for animals ever since I began having pets: from fish to hamsters to dogs. I decided to focus on animals when I first took one of my hamsters to a veterinarian. I thought that their profession was fun and interesting because it revolves around animals, something that I love and grown up with. Although studying veterinary sciences is difficult and competitive, becoming an animal doctor has been one of my greatest

The experience that initially sparked my interest towards veterinary medicine was when I attended Boiler Vet Camp at Purdue University during high school. Prior to camp, I thought veterinarians either worked on livestock or in small animal clinics. I was then exposed to the wide variety of veterinary career options in shelter medicine, research, and public health. I was also introduced to the challenges of getting into veterinary school. Being surrounded by people who shared the same interests as I did, motivated me to be more involved during college to see what all the profession offers.

When I was a little girl, I had my heart set on being a veterinarian. During middle school I tried to volunteer at the animal hospital. I wanted to learn everything I could about animals and help the veterinarians there, with their job. By the time I entered eighth grade, I knew that I wanted to get more involved. Once it came time to choose classes

You have a lot of heroic veterinarian doctors who see the intrinsic value in saving the lives of animals. One doctor, in particular, even performs on wild, injured animals that he meets. In fact, he has performed miracles on pets who were otherwise paralyzed. Dr. Evan Antin, a man who has dedicated his life to helping and understanding the endangered and most exotic animals, has gone somewhat viral on the Internet, but it has been for a more curious reason than what you might expect.

Growing up, animals have played a very substantial role in my life, and remain to today. These animals include dogs, cats, horses, pigs, chickens, turtles, and more. My initial interest in veterinary sciences was evoked at the young age of nine years old, when my horse was in labor. I recall the veterinarian arriving and asking me if I would like to assist him in delivering my horses foal. He walked me through the steps in which he was taking, and with every explanation, I became exceedingly more intrigued.

Barbara Natterson-Horowitz gave a TEDMED speech in September of 2014 entitled What Veterinarians Know That Doctors Don’t. Dr. Natterson-Horowitz is a professor of Medicine at UCLA Medical School in the Division of Cardiology. Additionally, she is an advocate of zoobiquity, or the connection of animal and human health. Her speech describes how a phone call introduced her to the world of veterinary medicine and, consequently, led her to promote the concept of physicians and veterinarians working together to further their understanding of medicine and health. In the speech, she provides examples of various instances where human doctors applied animal doctor knowledge to human patients and where animal doctors had the answers human doctors had

My childhood dreams were pretty simple and some stuck with me well into highschool, and even still now. One of the biggest dreams of mine was to become a veterinarian so that I could help out and save animals in need. This was the dream that stuck with me for awhile. I have always loved to help people and animals, so this seemed like the perfect job for me at the time. I researched it, and asked veterinarians about the job. It all sounded great, until I realized that in order to help the animals, I would also have to hurt them by

A veterinarian, a professional that treats animal health problems, is a career I yearn to pursue, due to the opportunity to keep any animal surviving, the ability to receive a high salary, and the chance to work with animals all the time. I have been interested in the veterinary field since I was seven years old. When I was seven, I had a german shepherd who was very sick. I went to the vet with her and I sat through the whole appointment. It was extremely hard for me when they told me that she had to be put down. It is very hard to see animals suffer in pain for a long time. Even though putting animals down is tough, sometimes euthanasia may be the easiest and best way to put animals out of misery. Since then, I have had a major interest

Knowing that many different animals react to many different things, it can be very difficult and a huge responsibility to care for one. Helping animals is a good to way to help the environment and others around you because it satisfies everyone with the results when treating an animal, and you’ll be doing something you like. My career goal is to be a Veterinarian. Being a veterinarian is very “challenging, rewarding, and demanding”. You have to be able to be aware of other people’s feelings and needs. You will come upon important decisions whether they benefit you or not. In order to become a veterinarian, you have to graduate from high school, get a Bachelor’s degree and/or go to a 4-year program at a college of Veterinary Medicine in order

Ever since I was about 6 years old i always adored animals. I wanted to help any animal who was sick or endanger. This career would be good for me because, I grew up taking care of many different animals. Being a vet or veterinary assistant would be the best job for me.

When I was younger I would always imagine myself as this super veterinarian, flying all over the world to help animals, and by pursuing a degree in biological sciences I would be one step closer to this dream. The first thing I can ever remember wanting to be was a veterinarian. One time, when we took my dog to the veterinarian, he let me go back and see behind the scenes actions. I shadowed the veterinarian and watched him spay and neuter cats and dogs.

When I was growing up I wanted to become a veterinarian; simple as that. As time went on I realized something kinda sorta essential. Dogs don’t enjoy the vet, don’t tolerate it, they hate it. Fear may be a more rational word to describe it, but guess what that does not make a catchy title. Over time my aspirations changed and I now find myself striving to be a wildlife rehabilitator. A form of veterinarian to a much wider range of animals than pets and companions, but that does not displace them in my heart. I love all animals, not a dog person, not a cat person, an animal person.

Throughout most of my life I have had one consistent goal; to become a veterinarian. I have had a continuous and solid passion for animals in all respects. This passion and love has fueled my in striving to achieve the dreams I have for myself after high school. The beginning of this story begins long before high school though.
