Tell Me Where It Hurts

If only they could talk! Tell Me Where It Hurts: A Day of Humor, Healing, and Hope in My Life as an Animal Surgeon takes us through 24 hours in the life of Nick Trout, a staff surgeon at Boston's Angell Animal Medical Center. Veterinary medicine in the 21st century is a blend of cutting-edge science and old-fashioned instincts. We meet Trout's furry patients and their sometimes zany owners but through it all we see the undeniable bond that humans have with their pets and the lengths that they will go to ensure the health of their companions. This is a very readable account of what it is like to be in veterinary medicine today.
