This year’s World Veterinary Day theme—“Veterinarians are essential health workers”—speaks to the countless hours and passion we put into our craft. According to the World Veterinary Association, “Veterinarians’ competencies must be regarded as an essential and integral part of health at large. The application of veterinary science contributes not only to animal health and well-being but also to humans physical, mental, and social well-being.” As animal health professionals, this has always been a given.
As we celebrate World Veterinary Day on Saturday, April 27, we’d like to take a moment to acknowledge you, our colleagues. We are grateful to share the best profession in the world with you and thank you for your partnership in our shared commitment to provide the best care possible to our patients.
