Canada Veterinary and Rhode Island Eye Team

It has been an unusual week for me and my colleagues at HAFF this week.

Monday a retinologist from Rhode Island and 3 veterinarians, 3 veterinary students and an animal health technician from Canada arrived for 8 days at HAFF. Since then, things have been very busy!


Normally when a team of veterinarians is at HAFF, I spend most of my time with them, translating at clinics and seminars. This time, with a retinologist on hand, and since I work in the HAFF eyeglass clinic, I have been spending most of my time with Dr Lory. I did take time away from the eyeglass clinic yesterday to spend the morning at the vet clinic translating for Dr Lory's daughter Thais, a vet student who is graduating this month.


The veterinary part of the team has been busy with neutering and spaying dogs and mules

and vaccinating and de-worming and treating sick animals.
