I have always enjoyed fish. I was determined to be a veterinarian. Becoming a fish veterinarian combined the two and has been an interesting journey. Working with fish farmers. They want to do a good job, they enjoy working with fish, and they like to have fun.
Veterinary professionals struggle to be adequately compensated.
This is an important consideration for anyone thinking of pursuing a career in veterinary medicine at this time. Raise koi and goldfish at home. Garden, read newspapers from anywhere and everywhere, and take long hikes. My family and friends, and people in everyday life who demonstrate the courage to do what is right because it is right and not because they want to be seen as heroes. Listen to your heart, work very hard, and don't allow people to discourage you.
