Total Views: 996 Daily Views: 1

A veterinarian is more than just a singular title. Veterinarians are dentists, urologist, dietitians, surgeons, psychiatrists, and so much more for the ones that can’t even tell us what is wrong. Those that do this line of work are great blessings in small communities. After learning the story, and visiting the Bristow Veterinarian Clinic I have adopted a newfound respect for what goes on behind the scenes at a local vet clinic. William H. Mitchell or “Doctor Bill” as his clients know him as had no problem recalling his reason to pursue this career choice.
