Ask The Vet: What the Heck is a Vet Tech and What Do They Do?

Veterinary Technician team leader Emily Yannarella talks to colleague and fellow Certified Veterinary Technician Darren Houser about the day-to-day responsibilities of Veterinary Technicians and nuances in technical specializations and certifications across the country. They also answer live caller questions, and share guidance for overcoming fear and providing a positive experience during check ups or while taking care of our pets at home.  Examples include high incentive rewards like smelly foods, special pheromones, alternative strategies for schedule check ups, anti anxiety medications and more.
