In an interview with dvm360®, Courtney Campbell, DVM, DACVS-SA, a veterinary surgeon at VetSurg and board member of the Diversify Veterinary Medicine Coalition, explained how he became interested in pursuing a career in veterinary medicine as he flipped through college pamphlets. After graduating a predominantly white high school, Campbell felt hopeful after seeing his identity represented in this industry.

The following is a partial transcript of the video.

Courtney Campbell, DVM, DACVS-SA: Inclusion is very powerful. My first inclination to the power of representation and inclusion happened when I was just a young boy standing in my room in Connecticut, thumbing through pamplets of colleges. I was looking through undergraduate colleges, but for some reason, a pamplet for veterinary school got intermixed in that pile of pamplets.
