Find Out What it is Like to Be a Vet with Dr Wissel At Commonwealth Veterinary Hospital

Item Number: 188
Time Left: CLOSED


Description
This is an opportunity for 1-2 students who might be considering a career as a Veterinarian or Veterinary Technician to see what happens behind the scenes at a veterinary practice.
The student(s) will spend a Wednesday morning with Dr. Kate Wissel at Commonwealth Veterinary Hospital watching what happens behind the scenes. Maybe you will see a surgery or a sore tooth removed, maybe you will see a pet get vaccines or help read x-rays, maybe you will get to see what bacteria looks like under the microscope or how a technician trims the nails of an uncooperative dog.
