Just came across this video, and wanted to say thanks for all the others that you've made. I've watched quite a few and they help so much. I'm currently a Junior in High School but I know for sure, 200% that I want a career in Veterinary Medicine. I've watched countless videos online and googled as much as I can about the profession. I've always had a 3.5 or higher gpa (it's high school though, so it's easy) along with taking college level classes at my school that give me college credits when I pass. Among those is Marine Biology (taking this year) and Calculus. I'm going to start volunteering a ton at various shelters in my area just to get a further feel of the profession. I plan to get into UF and take my courses there eventually applying to their Vet School. It's a long road to go, but I know it's what I want to spend my life doing. People like you have given me so much information furthering my interest in the area. Thank you a ton, you're helping a lot of teens just like me. (:

[@stephgerber9551]

There are other jobs besides being a veterinarian. You can always look into being a vet tech. As a tech you spend more time with the animals than the dr does helping them recover from surgery and comforting them (I’m currently a vet tech and feel it’s a job often overlooked).

[@shayla8713]

Another thing to keep in mind is that physicians are more likely to be sued bc with almost every death is an investigation and lawsuit happy families. Very rarely will a veterinarian get sued since animal deaths are not really a legal issue.

Also don't forget that's much more difficult to get into medical school and veterinary school. Medical school is a plum and is numerically limited intentionally to keep wait times long and prices up. I hear you can go to medical school in Cuba at a reasonable price And it's a first-rate education.

[@jeneanw.9791]

It’s actually more difficult to get in veterinary school because they’re few and far between. Not even enough schools to fill up every state, while for medical, there are multiple per state (usually).

Do vets have to pay for malpractice insurance the way doctors do? Are lawsuits against vets common?

[@adrianashilling9905]

Britni Okay Ets do pay malpractice insurance but it’s much much cheaper than MD malpractice insurance. Rates vary depending on the type of practice (equine racehorse practice is probably one of specialties with higher rates because some of those critters can be worth millions of dollars). I’ve been a predominantly small animal vet for 28 years (never been sued knock on wood) and In general I have found that people are understanding when things don’t go well as long as they feel you’ve done your best and you’ve communicated with them honestly.

[@gemmarium4337]

@@adrianashilling9905 Great info. Thanks for the response!

[@LuLu-fx8it]

yes vets have to pay one. In Europe vet malpractise insurance for horse medicine are more expensive than physicians' (but physicians' insurance are not very expensive here). But for small animals and cows they are a little less expensive. And there are a little less lawsuits against vets than against physicians (however lawsuits against physicians are not very common, doing lawsuits for nothing and all the time is really only an American thing)

[@redmoney119]

[@rinjette]

One major point: Vet school is MUCH more competitive then Med school, so is the field in general.

[@DWhite-el4ih]

I think this is a common misconception. While there is a much smaller number of veterinary schools in the united states, and perhaps the world than medical schools, the number of people applying to veterinary school is much smaller. In 2018 only 7,500 people applied to the 39 schools using the VMACS application portal (30 of those are US schools). On average that's about 190 students per school, of course some schools have more applicants than others. In 2018 about 53,000 applicants were submitted to the 179 medical schools in the US. That's about 296 applicants per school. Statistically speaking medical school is actually more competitive, on average, than veterinary school. Perhaps at one point in time vet school was more competitive when there was a very limited number of schools in the US. Hope this helps anyone contemplating applying and is worried about the competitiveness. Don't get me wrong, getting in is very hard work but the career is worth it in my opinion.

[@LuLu-fx8it]

the field (vet medicine) is clearly much harder than human medicine (since they have to do all specialties and in several species whereas physician only do 1 specialty on 1 specie). As for school competitiveness it depends onthe country. In Spain med school is much more competitive in than vet school. In France it's the opposite. And in many other EU countries the 2 are similar.

[@mnmzie3826]

David White well in Virginia the vet school at Virginia tech is very competitive. Last I checked on it, there were about 1500 students fighting for only 200 spots. Since then, they have made it easier to complete all their pre reqs, which means there will be a lot more students applying for spots next year. Granted it is one of the top vet schools in the country.

[@mnmzie3826]

Lilou ou they also have to master dentistry and many other areas that would be considered a specialized job for human doctors.

[@sharpandloud3422]

@@mnmzie3826 I wouldn't say that we have to "master" every speciality. Just like in human medicine, veterinary medicine also offers residency programs if a veterinarian did want to master a particular field of medicine. For instance you can enter a dentistry, radiology, surgery, cardiology, reproduction, or even now behavior and animal welfare residencies and there are many others. General practice veterinarians are not by any means expected to be a master of all of these aspects of veterinary medicine coming out of vet school. That's why specialists exist!

[@catrook8146]

As a vet tech student I agree with everything. Especially the horses...

Something big...if you are a vet you may have patients that weigh over 1,000 lbs, and can kick or bite. Even the little cats and dogs if stressed can scratch and bite.

When you compare veterinarian medical wages it's kind of erroneous because medical doctors in the United States make much more than they do in any other country. In Europe a medical wages wouldn't be that far off from Veterinary wages. Because there are few if any Insurance plans to cover animals the impact of Veterinary bills is greater for many people who are trying to help unfortunate animals. Makes me angry when unnecessary labs are done . It appears there's no real competition in medicine or Veterinary Care so there's no economic tension to blunt excessive prices.

[@subs3250]

Vets are paid incredibly poorly, I remember graduating and finding work in a vet practice almost straight away - which is great. But I was seriously struggling to fend for myself financially (housing, food, bills) despite being a vet, because vets are incredibly low paid Financial stress mixed with midnight shifts due to emergency calls can be hard. Luckily, I know this was bound to happen anyways because I’ve always knew vets were poorly paid - I did vet med because it’s something I’ve always wanted to do. But some people in my year were rudely awakened :/ I’m in the uk btw
