Download or read book The Vet at Noah s Ark written by Dr. Doug Mader and published by Apollo Publishers. This book was released on 2022-07-12 with total page 334 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From renowned veterinarian Dr. Doug Mader comes a stirring account of his fight to protect his animal patients and human staff amid the dangerous realities of inner-city life and the Los Angeles riots—and a celebration of the remarkable human-animal bond. The life of a veterinarian is challenging: keeping up with advances in medical care, making difficult decisions about people’s beloved companions, and, in Dr. Doug Mader’s case, navigating the social unrest in Los Angeles in the early 1990s. As one of the few exotic animal experts in California, he was just as likely to be treating a lion as a house cat. The Vet at Noah's Ark: Stories of Survival from an Inner-City Animal Hospital follows Dr. Mader and his staff over the course of a year at Noah's Ark Veterinary Hospital, an inner-city LA area veterinary hospital where Dr. Mader treats not only dogs and cats, but also emus, skunks, snakes, foxes, monkeys, and a host of other exotic animals. This real life drama is set against the backdrop of the trial of four police officers in the Rodney King case, as well as the violent aftermath following their acquittal. This is a book about survival, both of the pets that Dr. Mader and his staff try to save on a daily basis, as well as the staff themselves. Living in the harsh reality of the city, surrounded by gangs, drugs, violence, traffic, smog, and deadly riots, they must overcome and rise above, for their own survival and that of the animals who need them. This awe-inspiring account is told through Dr. Mader's riveting storytelling—as Carl Hiaasen writes, "Doug is fearless and dedicated," and "a damn good storyteller."

Download or read book Almost a Real Doctor written by Robert G Cimer D V M and published by . This book was released on 2019-07-10 with total page 436 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a child of the sixties, growing up in the New Jersey suburbs, he delivered kittens, rehabilitated wildlife, and inherited his mother's love for animals; there he found the spark to pursue a career as a veterinarian. However, first, he had to overcome an unsupportive father, a belittling academic advisor, three colleges, and financial hardship. In vet school, he struggled as a mediocre student, aggravated the assistant dean, challenged a combatant intern, punched out a fellow student, while avoiding the wrath of the chief of surgery. Then the naïve Jersey boy worked his first year as a farm animal vet wrestling a pregnant sow, dodging a one-ton Brahma bull, splitting open a rotting cow on a sunbaked Missouri field, and bluffing his way from one farm call to the next. A year later he returned to New Jersey where life really got tough.Here are real stories of a career veterinarian. Hilarious tales, like the house call to the home of a cantankerous old preacher and a box spring full of feral cats. Heart-wrenching scenes, like the euthanasia of a puppy cradled in the arms of a chronically ill boy. The bizarre story of the old women who believed her black Labrador contained the reincarnated soul of her dead mother and was convinced Molly, a.k.a. Mom was pregnant. Thought-provoking drama, like the senior citizen who ended his dog's suffering with a plastic bag attached to the exhaust pipe of his old pick-up truck. Stories of success; the last chance, surgery which saved a dog's life, and stories of failure; a surgical mishap which leads to the death of a German Shepherd Dog.What is it like to be a veterinarian? It's not just about loving animals. It is having sympathy for the animal while having empathy for the owner. It's convincing a pet owner their dog's surgery is more valuable than their next vacation. It's telling a stranger it is time to euthanize the family pet. It's putting your own dog to sleep in front of your children. It's performing a difficult surgery-alone. It's explaining to a distraught client why their pet died during a routine surgical procedure. It's negotiating the cost of a life-saving treatment while struggling to support a family. It's the revelation that veterinary medicine has become a discretionary afterthought for disposable pets. It's the realization that the small-town practice is selling out to greedy corporate America.In three decades of practice, ungrateful clients, angry pet owners, and viscous patients tested his faith. In his own hospital, insubordinate employees, deranged associates, frivolous lawsuits, hurricane Sandy, a nationwide recession, merciless bankers, and a rapidly changing profession, threatened his dream. Of course, he enjoyed every minute of it, or did he?This book will appeal to readers of James Herriot and Dr. Robert Miller, and these colorful stories will attract viewers of current veterinary and pet care reality shows. It will appeal to veterinarians, veterinary para-professionals, vet students, and millions of pet owners who wonder what it is like to be a vet. This book is Marley and Me, meets Patch Adams.This uniquely candid retrospective reveals the truth behind a largely misunderstood profession defined by fluffy reality shows and fanciful stories. Most books ask, "Who wants to be a veterinarian"? ALMOST A REAL DOCTOR asks, "Are you sure you want to be a veterinarian?"
