What is a VCC?

A Veterinary Cannabis Counselor (VCC) is a veterinary technician who has received training in utilizing their medical background to support the veterinarian and the clinic team in the rapidly developing veterinary cannabis industry.
With rapid shifts in the legal status of cannabis, the myriad of available products, and the inundation of our community by marketing & brand advertising, VCCs are trained to:
  • Provide pet parents with harm reduction education about cannabis
  • Evaluate and provide guidance on animal-safe cannabis products
  • Ensure the veterinary team is fully informed of how pet parents are utilizing cannabis in their pet
  • ​Encourage appropriate monitoring & diagnostics
