I did my first solo blood transfusion in a dog this weekend which came in with IMHA and a PCV of 11% (we want 36-55%). Just seen her back, she’s doing really well and manual PCV is 44%; full haematology gone to lab 💉 #FirstVetJob #planetRVN

Had a great morning of consults, then a flank spay and did my first cryptorchid castrate. Now I had time to come home for lunch(!!), homemade curry and Selling Sunset #FirstVetJob

Writing this months @vettimesuk @VBJMagazine article really helped me focus & reflect as I went through my own “transition period” between jobs - but so much of the content is just as relevant to #newgrads to make the most of their time off & prepare for #firstvetjob

My Cystotomy went really well, we took out nearly 100 uroliths (bladder stones) which will go to the lab for analysis, she went out for a pee this afternoon and has just gone home tail wagging 🐶 #FirstVetJob [owner gave photo consent]

I was meant to do my first Cystotomy today after doing hardly any surgery for 5 weeks of lockdown but we’re still waiting on some lab results so it was postponed; instead I got to do a Pyo which went well and she went home tail-wagging this evening #FirstVetJob #planetRVN

Amongst everything else going on at the moment; I’ve reached my final working day with the wonderful team @Oakwoodvets and my #FirstVetJob ! Lots of #lessonslearned & experience gained, but now for a much needed week off and then onto the midlands for the next chapter!

Today a client called me “a f*cking money grabbing c*nt” for treating his dog as an emergency appointment during #COVID19, charged at our usual rate. He then abused Reception taking payment on the phone and the nurse who gave him his meds #FirstVetJob

Running around the practice with a cats lens (from its eye) on the end of my finger excitedly showing all the student nurses how cool it is and no one bats an eyelid at how weird I am. I love my job #FirstVetJob #TeamVet

I wasn’t even meant to be on call tonight but got asked at 7pm. Got called in to euthanise a dog which is never nice OOH, then the best thing you can hear from an owner is “We were so glad it was you when you opened the door” #FirstVetJob

Had my first work appraisal on #FridayThe13th n I legit nearly cried cos of my 20-yr-qualified Director 🙃 Saying you’ll support someone is not the same as throwing them in the deep end with experienced vets and nurses who (I love but) are too busy when asked to help #FirstVetJob

Pledged my support to the super @vetsustain project, both as a vet for @oakwoodvets and as SVP @AVS_UK_Ireland - lots of easy tips for #sustainability #inpractice on their site! Regardless if your a student, #FirstVetJob or your a senior partner everyone has a role to play

My first Caesarean section 😍🥰 I didn’t do the full thing ‘cos one of the other vets opened and got the first pup out but I did the rest, sutured the uterus, spayed and closed her up while our nurses sorted the pups; great teamwork! #FirstVetJob
