World Veterinary Association The WVA is the internationally recognized global representative of veterinary associations and organisations. Hundred-sixty years ago, in 1863, Dr J.

It is the umbrella organization for National Veterinary Associations and International associations of veterinarians working in different areas of veterinary medicine. The WVA continues the ambition of Dr

Gamgee to bring veterinarians from all over the world together, to share experiences, to exchange ideas and to join forces for the promotion and development of veterinary medicine. The WVA defends the interest of the health and welfare of animals and people as well as the interest of its member organisations and their members.

The World Veterinary Association , World Veterinary Day theme for 2025 is "Animal Health Takes a Team" and we couldn't agree with this more!

Caring for your pets is a team effort, not just between pet owners and vets but the many members of staff who make up a veterinary practice and the veterinary profession as a whole.

When you come for an appointment you will be greeted by a receptionist and then go in to see your vet or nurse. From that point, there could be many more people involved in diagnosing and caring for your pet.

Your vet may suggest that your pet requires a blood test, two nurses will take that blood, and they may process the results in-house or a sample may need to go to laboratory who will then send someone to collect the sample. Their team will test and report those results back which will be processed by a receptionist and passed back to your vet.

Your pet may need some medication which will be prescribed by your vet, then passed on to a nurse who will then dispense the medication, then another team member will double check it with them.

These are just two examples that demonstrate the team work involved in the veterinary care of your pet, but there are many many more.

So, this World Veterinary Day, here's to team Hillside and all of our colleagues across the profession who work together to help keep your pet in their best health.
