America is running short on veterinarians — which could lead to problems for pets. Fox News spoke to Dr. Christina Sisk, Humane Society of Ventura County's director of veterinary services.
America is running short on veterinarians — and that could lead to problems for pets. A recent study by Mars Veterinary headquartered in Vancouver, Washington shows that by the year 2030, there could be 15,000 fewer vets than needed to care for pets nationwide. It’s common these days for people to schedule an appointment for their pets — and then wait weeks, if not months, for their animals to be seen. This goes for both general and urgent care needs.
Once they graduate, they want to start repaying those loans, and so they’re going to look for more lucrative jobs in cities and things like that. Working at municipal shelters and nonprofits are not going to be nearly as lucrative as private practice.' Sisk was the only vet at her Humane Society location for several years until last autumn.
