Animals - Veterinary science experts

Introduction

Veterinary medicine is concerned with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease, disorder and injury in non-human animals.

The scope of veterinary medicine is wide, covering all animal species, both domesticated and wild, with a wide range of conditions which can affect different species.

Most veterinarians work in private practice, treating animals directly.

While many Veterinarians operate general practices and treat a wide range of animals others specialised in a specific group of animals such as pets, animals for primary production, laboratory animals or may specialise in specific areas of practice including:

• surgery,
• dermatology,
• laboratory animal medicine,
• internal medicine.
  

A number of professions exist within the scope of veterinary medicine, but which may not necessarily be performed by vets or veterinary nurses. This includes those performing roles which are also found in human medicine, such as practitioners dealing with musculoskeletal disorders, including osteopaths, chiropractors and physiotherapists.
