Vet Tech Week Zoo Experience

Veterinary technicians are critical to the day-to-day function of our veterinary practices and play vital roles in preserving animal health and welfare. National Veterinary Technician Week provides an opportunity to recognize each veterinary technician’s contribution to the veterinary industry.

National Veterinary Technician Week

Although we value our veterinary technicians every day, during National Veterinary Technician Week AmeriVet honors their commitment to compassionate, high-quality veterinary care for all animals. Please join us in celebrating these important team members. First celebrated in 1993, National Veterinary Technician Week takes place in the third week of October every year.
