     "For as long as I can remember, I have been saving stray cats and rabbits that the cats brought home which is what got me interested in veterinary medicine. That's all that emergency medicine is, saving sick animals; we rarely see a healthy pet. There is also such a wide variety of cases that are seen. You can often see more of a variety of cases in one weekend of emergency medicine than you can in three months of day practice." - Dr. McCumber
