Vet Med Experience

Best part about a covid vet school experience is finding new hobbies with vaccinated friends. I’ve been able to keep on top of online lectures while also hitting up almost all of the metro parks in Columbus , starting my bowling alley tour of Columbus, and learning to top rope and lead climb with my surgery team. I may not remember how to perform a splenectomy but I will always remember the people making this journey bearable!
