Dr. Eustis, Veterinarian
On
Tuesday, October 30th, Dr. Eustis visited our classroom to meet
with our second grade team. Dr. Eustis is a South Burlington
community member. He also serves the community by taking care
of our animals.
Dr. Eustis asked the children, "What do you think a veterinarian
does to help the community?" He spoke about how vets
help protect the public. They help prevent people from getting
many diseases. In addition to taking care of sick or injured
animals, vets watch out for diseases that can get into the
population.
We learned a lot about what veterinarians do to help animals and
people. We saw x-rays of various animals, asked many
questions, and used various pieces of equipment that a vet must use
like an otoscope to check ears and a stethoscope to listen to
heartbeats.
Thank you to Dr. Eustis and to his technician, Jessica, for
visiting us and sharing their knowledge!
