“Many of us earned our veterinary degrees at UC Davis and are grateful for the School of Veterinary Medicine’s ongoing leadership in research and education that benefits animals. The training and cutting-edge education we received provided an essential foundation for our ongoing learning.  Since returning to teach part-time in the veterinary school at Davis, I am pleased to see that our school continues to provide a world class education."~ Dr. Jim Clark

“My degrees from UC Davis in both Animal Physiology and Veterinary Medicine, a postgraduate internship emphasizing surgery and emergency/critical care, and additional clinical study in anesthesia at the Veterinary Medical Teaching Hospital at Davis provided an exceptional basis for what has been a rich and very rewarding career. I feel extremely fortunate to have become a citizen of this profession these many years.”~ Dr. Steve Dana
