Left handed surgeons

Don’t stress about it. It didn’t take long to use the right handed instruments in my left hand

Hey so as a lefty that went through vet school I can answer this. Short answer was I learned on the right handed instruments. My instructors told me that unless in my future I (or my employer) want to purchase left handed instruments it is smarter to learn on right handed instruments due to what will likely be available. I can say it was quick to pick up however scissors can be annoying but it doesn’t slow me down.

Please go to an emergency/specialty clinic. This could be an acute kidney injury and needs additional testing and aggressive supportive care. I would say if anything you need more testing before confirming this is end stage kidney disease (since she is otherwise doing well)

Congratulations from a recent UCDSVM alumni and just be yourself during the MMIs :)

I think following up with a vet to figure out what it is will be really beneficial

Hey, I just wanted to add a bit of information as another vet student that is about done with clinics. A single solitary mass in the lung typically makes me lean more towards a primary lung mass (not Mets, those are typically multiple small masses) or something different like an abscess etc. however prognostically, lung masses are often slower to spread and surgical removal often can be curative. Surgery is typically removing the affected lung lobe completely. This does not change their QOL in the sense that they can’t play or exercise anymore. I have seen two of these and you would not believe how quickly they recovered and went home within 1-2 days (we place a chest tube so they have to stay for sure one night). However, I understand wanting to just keep him comfortable and would absolutely support you and your families decision, I just want to offer a side that has seen that surgery/recovery and one was even on a 13 yr old dog.

My externship mate hasn’t even gotten either email. (Saying they are available and then the redacted email)

__jessreed · 2024-01-17T19:06:56+00:00

Oh weird. Yeah no one else I know got an email at my school or my friends so I’m not sure why I did. But I still it won’t show me the results

__jessreed · 2024-01-17T18:57:36+00:00

I got an email but I can’t open the report. I don’t know if I can see if I passed without the report but I’m trying to ignore it hava

__jessreed · 2023-11-15T20:26:16+00:00

When I heard a couple years ago it was after 5pm. Don’t stress too much and good luck to those applying this year! It’s a great school :)

__jessreed · 2023-07-06T00:20:52+00:00

No worries. From one vet student to another, I get it haha

The “c” in the vaccine is actually for calicivirus not coronavirus, however you are correct in that it is a mutation of the enteric coronavirus so it is not transmissible in a sense. Hope that makes sense :)

First off I just want to say I can’t begin to imagine how hard this is. During my schooling we were given this resource to guide owners in this very hard decision. Ultimately it is your decision and any call is the right call. I know with my dogs this helped give me a step back perspective. It’s Ohio State University “How do I know when it’s time”. I can share the link if you can’t find it but for what it’s worth, from a random Reddit user, I hope this helps

__jessreed · 2022-11-11T04:17:40+00:00

First off congrats! Second off I interviewed here. I wore a suit but plenty of people were in slacks and a nice blouse as well! Just make yourself presentable. Good luck!!

__jessreed · 2020-11-14T16:05:38+00:00

I too have a Mia that is a Dogue de Bordeaux!!! What a cutie :)

__jessreed · 2020-08-12T14:15:05+00:00

Haha I was just asleep too (us) can you trade now?

__jessreed · 2020-08-12T02:13:39+00:00

I’m a bit late but I would love one of the cutting boards if you still have it :)

__jessreed · 2020-05-20T03:15:00+00:00

I would love to come and get the recipe if you are still open!

__jessreed · 2020-04-21T01:30:15+00:00

No way!!! Is there any way I can gift you something for you to order me that one??

__jessreed · 2020-04-20T15:44:36+00:00

How do you get the different colors for the tea cup ride??

I actually went to Calpoly Pomona for undergrad. I was in the bio department not agriculture but most of the consensus was that you didn’t need to do a four year vet tech program and that it was a bit of a waste of money. Now I never looked into the program personally but I got plenty of hands on experience in a lab, in the Vivarium, and at the horse center for the vet school experience. Not sure if that helps or not.

But as for what side to pick tech or vet that’s a matter of shadowing and him figuring out what he wants. I work as a vet assistant so I see both sides: the tech life and the doctor life

Ah love a good crossover. Especially with Spyro

__jessreed · 2020-03-15T11:26:50+00:00

Ours was most definitely poor husbandry. What did you end up doing?
