Internship
Point Loma Veterinary Clinic
I am so excited to go to my internship site tomorrow. I am most excited about getting a different perspective from a workplace point of view. I wanted to become a veterinarian when I was little and I became uninterested ever since I took a chemistry course. I am excited because I want to see if working with animals is something I want to do. I am also nervous that I won't be interested in the projects they provide. I am a high school student so I am not qualified to actually care for the animals. I want to be able to interact with the animals, so I am nervous I won't be able to do anything interesting.

I am doing my internship at Point Loma Veterinary Clinic. Their main goal is to care for sick animals and also be inexpensive. When I went to my site visit today I met my mentor Valerie. The workplace at the clinic is fun and comfortable and everyone there seems well educated. Everyone there is compassionate and patient, two skills that are necessary to work with animals. We talked about the project brainstorm and did the mentor interview. Some projects I can do is shadow her during surgeries and help during check-ins. I can also re-stock materials like syringes. Valerie explained to me the process it took her to get to where she is today. It was a long process for her but it was worth it because that is what she is passionate about.
