What is a Veterinary Technician?

Helping animals in their critical hour of need is at the core of what a Veterinary Technician does. This hands-on profession, sometimes referred to as simply a Vet Tech or Veterinary Assistant, involves:

• Providing critical support services for Veterinarians and animal hospital staff.
• Participating in lab tests and sampling and ensure equipment is ready for administering services.
• Taking X-rays and performing physical exams prior to veterinary procedures.
• Supervising and training personnel in the essentials of animal care.
• Delivering exceptional customer service to pet owners.

Sometimes animals need medical care too and you can do exactly that as a Veterinary Technician. Plus, there is tons of opportunity in this rapidly growing field. In fact, according to the American Pet Products Association, pet owners are expected to spend over $143 billion on their pets this year.¹
