The VBMA is a national student-managed organization
intent on improving the veterinary profession through increasing
business knowledge. We share the belief of many other veterinary
professionals – in order to provide the best care for animals, we need
to increase our knowledge about subjects outside the medical realm.
We feel that bringing business
management issues to veterinary students is integral to the education of
a well-rounded veterinarian and the advancement of veterinary medicine
as a profession. This knowledge of business will translate into
increased sales, stronger veterinarian-supplier relationships, and allow
veterinarians to practice better medicine.
Though veterinary business
management issues are a large concern, our organization is not limited
to solely promoting veterinary business management issues. Other issues
include managing debt, how to plan for the future, client interaction,
and the importance of managing personal finances.
