The Veterinary Assistant is the right hand to the Veterinary Technician and Doctor. They spend their days assisting during examinations, setting up for and helping during surgery and treatments, educating our clients and caring for your pets. These are just some of their many responsibilities. Meet our experienced Veterinary Assistants!
