At SODO Veterinary Hospital, we believe in celebrating the unsung heroes who play a vital role in the well-being of our furry companions. Veterinary Technician Week, which runs from October 15th through 21st, is the perfect occasion to shine a spotlight on the incredible veterinary technicians who form the backbone of our practice.

Why Veterinary Technicians Are So Important

Veterinary technicians, often referred to as vet techs or nurses, are the heartbeat of our team. They are highly skilled professionals who work tirelessly to ensure the health and happiness of your pets. We are proud to employ a dedicated team of vet techs who are passionate about their work and committed to providing the best possible care to your beloved animals.

According to the American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA), empowering veterinary technicians supports the success of veterinary practices. Vet techs are trained to perform a wide range of tasks, from assisting with surgeries and administering medications to providing compassionate care to animals in need. Their expertise allows veterinarians to focus on diagnosis and treatment, while vet techs handle crucial aspects of patient care.
