A Veterinarian Dream :-)
I am a veterinarian working in a joint practice with two colleagues. We specialize in small animals, mainly feline and canine. Depending on our workload we have up to four veterinary technicians working with us. I cannot tell you how many times technicians in training have to look up terms, or explain them to pet owners. We had always been joking that someone needed to come up with a pocket guide for these terms. Well, I guess here it is (in electronic format). I have not reviewed all entries, but from what I see it is very adequate and gives fast and easy answers. I can only recommend this to any pet owner or veterinary technician in training!
Good app
Would get 5 stars if you could listen to the pronunciation of the word. I also wish you could start typing the word and it would bring up possible entries; medical terms are sometimes difficult to spell!
No "c" category
My rating may be harsh, but it's difficult to fathom that the app doesn't include terminology that begins with a "c". A fairly obvious problem, no?
