The Vet Of A Bachelor

🐱 Chapter One 🐶

As a profession, veterinarians usually go through great lengths to meet the needs of the families we serve. Being asked to make household calls, or even stay past closing time is all common in my line of work. Still, even in this business, my clinic and all of the other's I own strive to make pets and their families as happy as possible. It's the goal of every vet, intern, secretary and groomer working for my clinics to make sure our customer's are leaving healthy and feeling well. No matter what the request is we will fulfill it to the best of our abilities.

"And all done, now give three to four weeks to make sure her hooves' properly healed and make sure you feed her her one antibiotic twice a day with her food."

I picked the pin off of my shirt and tightened the wrap around the horse's ankle before pinning it in place. I removed the stethoscope from my neck and tossed it into my carry bag before turning to and smiling. "Now, miss Claudia, this is the third time you've brought Sherly in the past six months. I'm only giving you my professional opinion here but I think you should stop racing with her, her leg is just too weak to handle the strain of the training." I said looking down at the woman who was now looking at her worse. "I suppose you're right doctor, Sherly's well being is more important than some stupid race." She said walking over to Sherly's and placing a hand on her muzzle. "I'll have Jessie pull the around and take you and Sheryl back to your ranch." I said as I wrote down the prescription. "Here you go." I said handing Claudia the prescription. "Thank you doctor (Name)." Claudia said looking down at the prescription.

I zipped up my carry bag and walked out just as walked towards the stables. "Oh (Name), glad I caught you, you have another patient waiting for you in room thirteen. said it's kind of a crazy case so be prepared." He said handing me the charts. "Okay I'll be there as soon as I file Sheryl's case." I said nodding back at the horse while placing the charts on top of Sherly's file. "Can you take Claudia and Sheryl home?" I asked and Jessie nodded. "Sure thing boss." He said walking around me. "Oh! And don't forget about the charity dinner tonight!" I called over my shoulder. "Right boss!" I heard Jessie yell as I started walking away from the and back towards the hospital. I looked down at chart Jessie gave me and looked over the information.

I looked flipped the page and looked at the Kathy took of my new patient and I must admit this is one photogenic cat. The woman holding the cat, not so much. I smiled as I closed the folder and made my way to records and admissions department.

"Hello Zaylee." I said as I walked through the sliding doors. "Hello (Name), what can I do for you?" asked looking up from her computer. "I need you to digitize these" I held up Sherly's file. "and Email them to my persona; Email." I said handing them to Zaylee. "Sure thing boss." She said opening the file and placing a number in the folder. I waved and smiled at Zaylee as I started to exit the department.

"Doctor (Last Name) will you please report to room seventeen, your assistance is very much needed."

I rose a brow at the message sent to my audio-pager and started rushing over to the room. "Watch it doctor, slow down before you trip." I heard someone say. "I'll slow down when I'm dead." I laughed as I continued on my way. "I guess that's the case for every doctor huh!" I heard them yell as I walked up to room seventeen.

I straightened my hair and opened the door to see Kathy on the phone seemingly arguing and a woman sitting on the couch seeming annoyed. "Kathryn!" I shouted as I closed the door. "Now is not the time for a personal call!" I scolded as I turned on the faucet to wash my hands. "Oh thank god you're here Doctor (Name)-" She shoved the phone towards me. "You deal with this guy! He's Elizabeth's owner and is being very unreasonable." She said as I dried off my hands. I took the phone and looked at the before putting it to my ear before walking over to where Elizabeth was lying. I reached down and gently applied pressure to the injured paw to which she instinctively pulled it away.

"Doctor (Last Name) speaking."
