Veterinary Mentorship Maggie Walker
My Mentor • Dr. Susan Oltman • Veterinarian Tridelphia Veterinary Clinic 3900 Ten Oaks Road Glenelg, MD 21737
What I Learned • Why laser surgery is used • What a snap test is and how it works • How to perform a simple check-up • What a cat and dog uterus looks like (uterine horn) • How declawing works • What an IV catheter is • Dental work • Bandaging
Most Valuable Insight Most of the staff in the clinic had different majors before they decided to work with animals.
Unexpected Information • Don’t have to take Anatomy and Physiology • Vet school is very standard. The professors pick your classes and there is a passing grade • First viewing of gore (WARNING: Picture on right is graphic. Not for the squeamish)
Do I Still Want to Become a Vet? • Yes! • This is something that I’m interested in • Not afraid of blood and gore • Still love animals
