The Career Diary of a Veterinarian follows Christine Calder, a small animal veterinarian in Maine for 30 days. A popular vocation by many who love animals, Calder sheds light on the daily routine of a veterinarian which can be as varied as the patients she sees. The diary paints a realistic picture of the life as a professional who followed her passion into a rewarding profession. There’s never a dull or normal moment for the vet, whether she’s facing all night on-call rotations or de-quilling a dog that has had a run-in with a porcupine. This fascinating inside look at veterinary medicine will help readers decide whether this is the profession for them.
