Dr. Jan Pol has been a practicing veterinarian for more than half his life. In 1981, he and his wife, Diane, opened a vet business out of their home, and over the years it has grown to service more than 19,000 clients. Set in central Michigan's farm country, this reality series follows the work done at Pol Veterinary Services. Specializing in large farm animals, Dr. Pol treats horses, pigs, cows, sheep, alpacas, goats, chickens and even an occasional reindeer. The program also features Dr. Brenda Grettenberger, who has worked with Dr. Pol since 1992.
Dr. Pol, Diane and Charles visit the Netherlands, but for Doc, this is no vacation, as a whirlwind of adventures and farm calls await; back in Michigan, Dr. Brenda, Dr. Emily and the rest of the staff do their best to keep up with the busy clinic.
Dr. Pol, his son Charles and Dr. Brenda try to keep up with an onslaught of puppies, kittens and calves before operating on two 1,600-pound cows.
Dr. Pol and Dr. Brenda see a mountain of cases at the clinic including a cow and a black lab.
The busy summer season kicks into high gear at the clinic with life-and-death situations.
