At i-Care Veterinary Hospital in Coombs, BC, we understand that your pets are family. That’s why we offer Vet Tech Appointments—a convenient, stress-free way for your furry friends to receive routine care. In this post, we’re taking you behind the scenes of a typical day, following Emily, our technician in training, as she provides personalized care for four special patients.

What Are Vet Tech Appointments?

Vet Tech Appointments are visits handled by trained veterinary technicians for routine care that doesn’t require a veterinarian’s direct intervention. These appointments can include:

  • Vaccines
  • Arthritis injections (like Librela)
  • Post-operative or dental follow-ups
  • Nail trims, ear cleaning, and more

They’re quick, effective, and help ensure your pet’s ongoing health while giving vets more time to focus on complex cases.

A Day in the Life of Vet Tech Appointments at i-Care

On this particular day, Emily cared for:

  1. A Golden Retriever who received a Librela injection to manage arthritis pain, making those golden years a little more comfortable.
  2. Bandit, a dog attending a follow-up appointment one month after having several incisors and molars extracted. Follow-ups like these ensure pets heal properly and are back to their happy selves.
  3. Bambi and Winston, two adorable kittens getting their second round of vaccines. Their owners also left with flea, tick, and worm medications to administer at home.
  4. Teddy the Pug, who stopped by for a quick Librela injection in the reception area.

Why Choose Vet Tech Appointments?

Vet Tech Appointments are perfect for pet parents looking for convenient, compassionate care for their pets. They also help pets feel more comfortable by minimizing the time spent in the clinic for routine treatments.
