New ‘day in the life’ series follows different Irish vets

Paddy Morrisey from O’Connor Julian Veterinary kicks off the series on Monday, April 8.

MSD Animal Health in conjunction with XLVets Ireland are delighted to announce the launch of their ‘Day in the Life of a Vet Series’.

The series will focus on the day-to-day life of different vets during one of the busiest times of the year.

As April reaches its peak, calving and lambing is in full swing, farmers are gearing up for the start of the breeding season, some animals are being turned out to grass and the threat of disease looms.

Farms are stretched to capacity and vets are at their busiest.

Ever wondered what a vet’s working day entails during such busy times? Here’s your chance to find out, join MSD Animal Health on Instagram from April 8 to April 11.

Over the course of four days, MSD Animal Health will shadow a different vet and their team, capturing the essence of a day in the life of a busy veterinary practice.

Stay tuned and follow MSD Animal Health Ireland on their Instagram channel (@msdanimalhealthireland) for live updates.

Viewers will get the opportunity to follow our host vet each day to gain an insight into just what a typical day looks like for a vet in practice.

They will also get to learn about the vet’s practice, be introduced to the team and learn about different disease threats to watch out for at this time of year.
