Veterinary Pathologist Interview Question:

What do you like about what you do?

Submitted by: Muhammad

I like the challenge of diagnostics. I like the satisfaction of saving an animal's life. I like the things that we do to make animals live longer, live more productive lives, spaying and neutering, and all healthcare. Now our cats are living to seventeen or eighteen years of age, and our dogs are fifteen and sixteen, and when I started practice, if you had a fourteen-year old cat, it was old. And then once in a while, it's rewarding when somebody comes up and thanks you for what you've done for (Fifi) or (Foofoo). If money was in it, I wouldn't have done large animal. Because large animal[care] was rewarding; delivering calves and treating sick animals, and the fire engine calls were lots of fun, but there was no money in it. There never is any money.
