Last week kiddos from St. Paul's School summer program came for a visit to learn about veterinary medicine. They learned about the minimum 7 years of college dedication it takes to become a veterinarian, safety around approaching dogs, they got to see parasites and saw an ear infection under our microscope. They used stethoscopes to hear their own heartbeats and they even got to experience what lead aprons feel like when we take x- rays. The kids got to see our super x-ray (Conical Beam CT) and gowned/gloved up to do a surgery removing foreign bodies a dog had eaten (dog operation game). They got to meet Dobby the bearded dragon and Gidget the sweet pomeranian. It was a busy lunch break for us and a fabulous time with the kiddos! We had so much fun showing the kids a day in the life of all of us in veterinary medicine!
