Event Description: Subject: Are your children interested in a career with animals? Here’s a great opportunity for your animal-loving child to take an Insider’s Tour through Oceanside’s award-winning veterinary hospital – and learn what it takes to become a vet. What career opportunities are there for animal lovers? What do vets actually do? What education do you need? Dr. Bob Cartin, owner of the Mission Animal & Bird Hospital, will present “Careers in Veterinary Medicine: what you need to know to make it happen” on Sunday May 1, 2011 from 4:00 – 6:00 pm. The event includes a behind-the-scenes tour of the hospital, followed by a discussion of what you need to do to become a vet – and finishes up with a presentation of some of our most interesting cases. It’s a fact-filled and experiential introduction to what it’s like to work in a veterinary practice – and it’s at no cost to you! If your kids love animals, this is a wonderful opportunity for them to experience what a veterinary medicine career is all about – and to learn what they need to do to make it happen for them!
