I worked at a animal hospital for many years. I worked in all areas of the hospital setting. Clinical, operating room, radiology, intensive care nursing as well as general kennel care for all types of animals like birds, dogs, cats even reptiles. As I was rotating thru the laboratory I was working under the close supervision of the pathologist who believed I had a very good instinct to details especially in microscopic cell identification. As a result I went back to school and got a degree in medical technology. I was working in a human hospital setting in hematology and missed working with the animals so I worked per diem for a local veterinarian. As I worked for him when I was in college. He unfortunately passed away and my life got busy raising a family and it was a very convenient job at the human hospital because my hours were mostly weekend and holidays. My job description as a hematologist is very mentally and physically demanding. I would like to return to taking care of animals. I thought pet sitting or dog walking would be something I will totally enjoy doing now. Sort of like ending my career as I started.
