PHYSICIAN TRIES TO PASS VETERINARY BOARD EXAM

A lot of people ask me, "Dr. Cellini, aren't vets smarter than human doctors?". Well, this video seeks to answer that question. I have been trying to make this video with the great ‪@DrCellini‬ for quite some time and over the holiday I finally had some time to sit down, use his equipment and studio for my own gain, and see how his level of medical knowledge helps out with the North American Veterinary Licensing Exam. The results will......surprise you (they surprised me).

I'm always so impressed with vets and think it would be a much harder job. Physicians need to learn one species' anatomy. Vets need to learn countless. Humans can tell their doctor what's bothering them. Vets have to deduce what the issue is. Physicians also don't have to worry about being bit--most of the time, anyway.

[@lisaenglert3202]

Exactly 😅 plus there are so few vet schools compared to med schools

[@SaltNBattery]

100%! I just said the same thing before I saw this. Human doctors have to learn the anatomy of one species. Vets, multiple species with pretty substantial variation between subspecies. Most vets are surgeons, oral surgeons/dentists, radiologists, orthopedist/orthopedic surgeons, pediatricians, geriatrician, infectious disease specialist, pathologists, endocrinologists, reproductive endocrinologist, OBGYNs, proctologists, urologists, cardiologists, gastroenterologists, palliative care/euthanasia... That's your average small practice vet at any decent animal hospital. Don't get me started on Veterinary technicians vs nurses. It's not even a contest depending on your state, they're also nurses, anesthesia techs, surgical techs, dentists, dental hygienists, radiology techs, phlebotomists, lab techs, pharmacists, medical assistant, etc.. i mean have you ever tried to place a catheter on a severely dehydrated 17 year old cat? Tried to collect a blood sample from the jugular of a 105lb German Shepherd that doesn't consent to treatment? How about from the jugular of a pissed off cat that hasn't had a nail trim in years? Speaking from personal experience, those are the easy parts of the job. The much much harder things are the things you can't forget no matter how hard you try. Or the things you have to do.. Add to that the scars from all the bites/scratches, the constant pee/poop/anal glanding on everything. Then, to top it all off you make minimum wage, or slightly more ($0.50 more)... The clients... Noncompliance... The reality that unless you apply for a CareCredit card, there is no "send me the bill'. It's pay now or fluffy dies. Many animal hospitals, in my experience, are extremely manipulative towards their staff because they know that they're all here because they love animals and will use that to get you to go above and beyond. Sign this paper agreeing to no breaks, no lunches "due to the nature of our job". 12 hour days are standard. It's not just vets who have an extremely high suicide and burn-out rate by the way. We hear about vets a lot now and I'm glad but at the same time.... Anyway...

[@docsavage98]

As a practicing doctor of veterinary medicine for 40 years mostly in rural mixed animal practice, i cringed on some of these questions then realized....i know this! Havent taken an examination since the KY State Boards back in the days when each state had its own basic sciences/veterinary medicine tests...usually a 2 day ordeal. I took TN a couple of weeks after graduating and then KY a year later. Just a few years ago i was going to be in WVA covering for a maternity leave for 2 months. The state board was an on line short exam on particular laws pertaining to veterinary medicine in the state....soooo much better! I still think we need universal licensure where 1 license allows you to practice in any state, with states providing a .pdf or booklet of laws pecuilar to that state. Of course, we've asked for that for 60 years. Maybe things like this video might convince a lot of the self smug M.D.'s ive come across over the decades who said and acted like veterinarians were vastly inferior to human medical practitioners. Always irritated me that MD's are basically one species specialists,leaving the DVM to cover the other 50K species.

To be fair though so many vets just do dogs and cats and refuse smaller animals and larger animals. Like I get it's the bread and butter (And large animal is a LOT more work on call days ect) but 2 species doesn't really feel like that much better

[@coles5243]

Great video!

[@DVMCellini]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@Kuraujia]

Got 5/6. Final year student here, that have 0 experience with exotics. I might need to study more about them

[@dowhateverfree]

you can kind of get these without being a veterinarian if you understand the meaning of latin roots... I passed the first few questions and don't know anything about either practice! haha I feel special

This was a fun way for me to study for my NAVLE this fall 😂

I didn't know there were veterinarian specialists. For me, I always look at doctors in terms of competence rather than intelligence. Antidotally, I've never crossed paths with an incompetent vet and don't know anyone else who has. They seem to be honest when discussing whether or not an expensive medical treatment would help. Can't say the same with human doctors. Generally, the average person has a very favorable opinion of vets. Over the past two years, I've seen many people say they want to switch to having one of them as their PCP.

its always amazing to me how few people know vet specialists are a thing

[@kaceeboxers3580]

Thankfully I’ve never had to use a veterinary neurologist, however have used cardiologist ( echos and 24 hour holter monitoring for breed clearance as well as common heart issues in our breed), eye specialist and orthopedic specialist.

[@gracielac.p.reiser4320]

@@DVMCellini that surprises me too. We have lots of specialists, dermatologist, ophtalmologist, of course surgeon ( i'm not sure about the spelling without closing the page)

[@KatrinaDancer]

@@DVMCellini Seriously!!! My freaking dog just about bankrupted me between his usual vet, a cardiologist, an opthalmologist, a dermatologist, an internist and a bunch of other vets that were treating my wolfdog's nearly fatal case of disseminated Valley Fever. It was an absolute nightmare but I'm so grateful veterinary science is so advanced!

[@shoenan2294]

Yup there’s SO MANY veterinary specialisations, for me I’m wanting to specialise in veterinary ophthalmology after my mandatory 3 years of being a vet gp

[@evenc13]

I’d be curious to see how well you answer human neurology board questions as a veterinary neurologist

[@DVMCellini]

The problem I'd run into is the sheer volume of conditions, syndromes, diseases, symptoms, etc that are named after some white dude from France who discovered it in the 1700's. There's just so many "proper noun" names to things. Whereas with vet med, everything is medical terminology in its description.
