Do you ever wonder why your pet gets a more thorough physical exam than you do? It is because your pet’s veterinarian wears many professional hats.
Your pet’s veterinarian is also your pet’s dentist, psychiatrist, cardiologist, radiologist, anesthesiologist, surgeon, ophthalmologist and much more. That is a lot of knowledge that is required of your pet’s doctor.
