Veterinary Medicine is the branch of medicine that deals with the prevention, diagnosis and treatment of disease as well as disease prevention in animals of all types, from family pets to farm livestock and zoo animals. Veterinary health care workers also contribute to human public health by working to control zoonotic disease, those diseases passed from non-human animals to humans.
