Veterinary Doctor

Prepare Animals for Surgery Before a veterinarian performs surgery, a Veterinary Technician prepares the animal by shaving and sterilizing the surgical site, administering sedatives and performing other pre-operative procedures. Veterinary Technicians also assist veterinarians during surgery.
Educate Animal Owners Veterinary Technicians teach animal owners how to administer medication and perform basic medical procedures at home. In many cases, a Veterinary Technician is also responsible for answering questions about general pet care.
Assist in Veterinary Exams It's difficult to perform a thorough examination on a wiggling animal, so a Veterinary Technician assists with every exam. The Veterinary Technician may have to hold the animal in a certain position, hand instruments to the veterinarian or record an animal's vital signs.
