Is there such thing as a veterinarian specializing in all pets?

Is there any such thing as a veterinarian who has been trained and specializes in all/many different pets? I love all animals big and small, could I work with cats, dogs, birds, lizards, farm animals, etc...?Is there such thing as a veterinarian specializing in all pets?You can certainly get vets that are great working with animals of all types- my vet is one of these vets- he works with cats, dogs, farm animals, and is great with my little pets, rabbits, guinea pigs, rats, and parrots.

Usually, these vets do a heap of different training in a variety of fields, and need to continue this training over the years to ensure they are up to date on all the latest medications, health problems, surgical techniques, etc.



But to truly specialise in a field, you really have to focus on one type of animal. For example, there are parrot and bird specialists who deal exclusively with parrots and birds. In the event of a serious health problem with one of your birds, this is who you are better off going to help from.

I have spoken to a rabbit specialist who deals exclusively in rabbits, and have even heard of a fish specialist who specialises in fish surgery.



It would be very difficult for a normal vet to specialise properly in every different field as the 'real' specialists do, because there is an intense amount of study, research, and practice that you need to do in order to become a true specialist. Normal vets would be dragged down by dealing with different species, learning all new information for different animals, etc.Is there such thing as a veterinarian specializing in all pets?Yes, my vet sees all types of pets, he is really good.
