If you care enough to have a pet, then you probably care enough to make sure the pet has access to great health care. A vet in Bowie is a unique individual; he is as capable of providing medical care with skill equal to that of a human doctor, and yet he works with creatures that do not speak his language and are usually frightened as they do not have any comprehension of what’s happening to them.

A vet in Bowie, after completing many years of study and internship is finally ready to turn his hand to the real world.

When the vet is financially ready to open his own animal hospital, things change from the routine; hands on care that he was doing while working for another vet and his day becomes complicated with decisions of a different nature. He has to deal with the clinic infrastructure and staff.

The clinic becomes an extension of the vet; it will reflect his knowledge of his profession, an understanding of the people in the community and his desire to provide the best of everything.

The basic infrastructure that the vet in Bowie wants to see in his hospital is:

The examination rooms: They have to be spacious and equipped with an elevating examination table so pets, large pets in particular, do not get stressed out by being physically lifted. He will want the room well ventilated and sound proofed so the animal will not get stressed with noises that he not familiar with. He will want a computer terminal where the animal’s records can instantly be accessed. As this is the animal’s first stop, this is where relaxation should begin.

The laboratory: The vet in Bowie who is planning his new pet hospital will want a lab in house so that everything that is necessary to diagnose an animal’s illness can be made quickly and accurately. The lab will have all state-of-the-art machines that will check the vitals of your pet, be complete with X-ray, ultra-sound, blood analyzers, as well as equipment to check the chemistry of the liver, kidney and thyroid.

Isolation: The isolation ward will be designed to confine any infectious diseases. It will be a true isolation facility where the animal will stay until it is cured and ready to be returned to its owner. All medical procedures that may be required can be accomplished in the room and all the air in the ward will be discharged outside where it cannot interfere with other animals.

Surgery: The vet in Bowie spent years honing his skills in surgery; his new clinic will be complete with heated tables to prevent hypothermia and full anesthesia machines. The surgery will be as sophisticated as most surgeries in human hospitals. The instruments will include surgical suction and a defibulator in case the animal has a heart attack.
