DISQUS

I don't believe veterianrians go in it for the money. they are not ranked in Forbes top 25 and the average stated from the AVMA is $75000 - not much when you consider that they have the same sort of debt as a human physician. Entry to one of the few veterinary school in the USA is very competitive so most of these students could have gone to the more profitable human medical school if they had wished however they didn't, they chose to earn less. Its well known amongst anyone in the healthcare profession that the low salaries of veterinarians is an anomaly in the amongst the medical professions. bearing this in mind I muct ask myself how much research did this journalist do for this article. i am guessing he knocked it up as a quick story for .....guess what...... the money!!!
