★★★★★ “Dishing the dirt on what it’s really like to work in a vet clinic.” Dr. Philipp Schott DVM, author The Accidental Veterinarian
With years of experience as a Registered Veterinary Technician, Frannie O’Callaghan offers an unapologetic window into the daily encounters of the humans who take care of pets. This whip-smart but darkly humorous confessional spans from the Patients who bite, claw, urinate, or defecate in scrub pockets. Are the few and farther in-between moments of wagging tails and slobbering tongues worth it?
Then come the outlandish Clients, including the heinous antics of a local man of the cloth, or the conspiracy theorists convinced of veterinary schemes to “grab ‘em and stab ‘em.” All the way to Coworkers along for the bloody, vomit-filled daily grind. For a job that demands a high skill level and stress-tolerance for relatively little monetary compensation, Vet Techs need a reason to stay. Moments of levity, healing patients, colleagues helping to push through this absurd profession, or cuddling beloved animal companions—somewhere amid the chaos is beauty that brings them to work every day.
Between heavy doses of swearing, snark, licking wounds, and an occasional jab at the heartstrings, SOAP Notes: Irreverent Confessions of a Veterinary Technician dishes up the roaring, goring, and never boring chronicles of veterinary life.

Frannie O'Callaghan has been a licensed veterinary technician for over a decade. Apart from examining feces under a microscope, she's an avid historical fiction reader, shameless pun-user, and amateur baker. A travel nerd, she's most content hiking the Old Man of Storr during inhospitable Scottish weather, belting 'Auld Lang Syne' in a Dublin pub on New Year's, or bathing with elephants in the Mae Taeng River of Thailand. Her best writing comes with heavy pours of dry prosecco. O'Callaghan lives with her husband, canine dependents, and an unfortunate number of deceased plants due to her brown thumb.
