National Veterinary Technician Week 2023 is October 15-21!
We love veterinary technician week and the chance to celebrate our hardworking vet techs!
First observed in 1993, National Veterinary Technician Week occurs annually during the third week of October and is officially designated by the National Association of Veterinary Technicians in America (NAVTA).
At GlobalVetLink, we acknowledge the dedication, tireless effort, and commitment exhibited by veterinary technicians in their daily endeavors to uphold the welfare of animals. A veterinary technician plays a vital role in the smooth functioning of veterinary practices, often involving complex responsibilities. While we believe in showing our appreciation for these professionals every day, we extend an invitation to express extra recognition during this special week!
