The post-80s veterinarian and his pet clinic

On April 26, when the reporter walked into the pet clinic on Fumin Road in Xingtai City, Li Chaoyang and his wife were dispensing medicine to give an intravenous drip to a Pomeranian. Li Chaoyang's wife, Zhai Jia, gently stroked the Pomeranian to calm it, while Li Chaoyang quickly and accurately pushed the needle into the blood vessels of the leg. "Xiao Li, your needle is really accurate. Our dog's leg is so thin that you put it on with a single needle." Said the owner of the Pomeranian with admiration. "practice makes perfect. Back in the day, I had to tie it many times before I could get it right." Li Chaoyang said.

Like many young people, Li Chaoyang, born in 1988, is lively, cheerful, talkative and laughable, but after putting on a white coat and starting to work, he becomes serious, serious and meticulous. Li Chaoyang said that most people regard pets as their relatives and friends and put in a lot of feelings to come to us for medical treatment. they can trust us, and we should have the same rigorous work attitude as human doctors.

Although Li Chaoyang is young, he can be regarded as an "old" veterinarian. Li Chaoyang is from Xingtai and his wife Zhai Jia is from Henan. They were classmates in graduate school and both majored in veterinary medicine. They were certified as veterinary surgeons in 2012. When they were graduate students, they began to practice in the school veterinary hospital, came into contact with a lot of cases and accumulated a lot of experience. It was also during his internship that Li Chaoyang became interested in treating pets. When he first came into contact with the veterinary major, Li Chaoyang was very confused and did not know where he would go or what he would do after graduation. After my internship in a veterinary hospital, I felt a sense of achievement whenever I saw that the small animals cured by myself had changed from sickness to vitality. Therefore, opening a pet clinic after graduation has become his entrepreneurial goal. Li Chaoyang knows very well that only with technology, it is impossible without knowing how to run a business. After graduation, he and his wife decided to work in a large pet hospital in Shenzhen to learn other people's advanced technology and business model, and then start their own business.

Where is the clinic? After some inspection, Li Chaoyang found that there are only six or seven pet clinics in his hometown of Xingtai, but there are more pet owners. Subsequently, through start-up loans and family support, the pet clinic was set up in Xingtai in November 2014. However, everything is difficult at the beginning. due to the short operating time, customers are skeptical about "pet". They only come in to consult questions and go to other clinics to see a doctor. Even so, Li Chaoyang and his wife patiently answered customers' questions and taught them some knowledge about keeping pets. "when we first opened, whenever customers came, we would be excited all day!" Zhai Jia, Li Chaoyang's wife, said.

However, with professional technical services, Li Chaoyang's medical skills have been recognized by more and more people. "our cat was sterilized here, and it worked well and recovered quickly." Mr. Zhang, who brought the cat to see the doctor, said. It is reported that they use the female cat lateral incision technique, compared with the traditional sterilization surgery in the middle of the abdominal opening, lateral incision is in the ventral wall opening, small knife edge, quick recovery, not easy to infection, no stitches after operation. "this method is especially suitable for unconceived stray cats, which can be released the next day after operation." Li Chaoyang said.

Since the opening of the clinic, Li Chaoyang has never refused to accept any animal. no matter what disease it has and how serious it is, he will minimize its pain and try his best to treat it. Stray cats and dogs sent by the stray Animal Protection Association will only be charged at cost. Adhering to the purpose of "reducing animal suffering and improving animal welfare", as well as sincere service attitude, "pet" pet clinic has received a lot of praise.

Now, more and more small animals come to the pet clinic to see a doctor, and the small clinic is crowded. Li Chaoyang plans to expand the scale of the clinic in the second half of the year to give small animals a more comfortable environment for medical treatment. At the same time, the clinic will add pet beauty programs to provide better and comprehensive services for small animals.
