VETERINARIAN
License Description Veterinarians diagnose, treat, and control diseases and injuries in animals, as well as help prevent the spread of animal disease to humans. Veterinarians also counsel and educate animal owners and livestock producers about animal health care. Many work with small animals or house pets. Others concentrate on the health and breeding of cattle, sheep, horses, swine and poultry. Veterinarians also inspect meat and poultry as part of government health programs. Some veterinarians, after additional training and education, become American Veterinary Medical Association (AVMA) Board certified in their chosen field.
