Throughout the duration of the candidates experience at Healthy Pets, we plan on providing them exposure to the fast paced environment of the small animal practice field. We plan on establishing goals to include experience in exam rooms with dogs, cats, pocket pets, reptiles and birds, as well as a multitude of surgical procedures. The candidate will be expected to participate in communicating effectively with our clients, devising a medication protocol for our patients, scrubbing in for surgical procedures, and discussing the financial aspects, business overhead and the transaction reports of our hospital.
At Healthy Pets, we have a variety of equipment that we use on a daily basis. We provide in house labwork (CBC, Chemistry, Urinalysis, Snap test), digital radiology, ultrasonography, surgical laser and therapy laser (class IV).
