I love working at AEH because there's always an opportunity to learn something new! I didn't have very much vet med experience before coming to AEH, but just in the year I've been here I've learned so much and gained so many skills I didn't know I'd ever have! AEH also supports career paths in vet med and the learning never ends!

- Morgan Neeb

I love that each day at AEH is something different than the last. Every case we see and every patient we treat is a chance to learn. I also love the fact that we are able to help the most sick and critical patients and make them better again!

- Rachel Connelly-Avila, veterinary assistant in the LVT Penn Foster program

Working in the Animal Emergency Hospital has been an incredibly rewarding experience for me. I came from a background very far removed from animal medicine and was surprised by how quickly I adapted and was made a part of the AEH family. It really is a family of tight knit and wonderful people who come from all different environments, which allow them to provide unique outlooks to every situation. In an emergency room you can experience many drastic highs and lows but being with a team of coworkers who are genuinely there to support and comfort you, in the end it makes every bad day worth it and every good day that much better.
