So you want to be a vet?

Physical Exam

You're the veterinarian and you are assigned to Max's case!

The first thing you need to do is collect a history from Max's owner, Mindy. That means getting basic information about Max such as his age, whether he is neutered and any health issues he has had in the past.

After collecting a history, your physical exam will include the following steps:

Palpate the lymph nodes / abdomen
Use the otoscope to look in the ears
Look in the mouth
Inspect the hair coat
Take temperature
Listen to respiration and heart rates

...this means you need to look and carefully inspect Max's body for problems.

Continue the exam!
