The article deals with a topic that has received little attention in research to date: dealing with disgust in veterinary medicine. While veterinarians are confronted with situations and materials (such as faeces, blood and pus) that many people are disgusted by, the need to deal with disgust is not featured in the descriptions of the profession and its challenges, nor in accompanying sociological research. In the following article, we will briefly outline the emotion of disgust and its relevance to veterinary medicine. Given the limited research on disgust within veterinary medicine, we will draw upon insights from analogous professions, particularly human medicine, to illuminate how this emotion impacts professionals, their practice, and their relationships with patients: The emotion of disgust is indeed present and prevalent among surveyed healthcare professionals, irrespective of their level of experience; feeling disgust can have a negative impact on the healthcare professional-patient relationship; and healthcare professionals develop specific coping strategies to encounter the feeling of disgust during work. Since there is a lack of corresponding research in veterinary medicine, exploring how disgust influences various aspects of veterinarians’ well-being, decision-making processes and interactions with both patients and clients, the paper argues that the phenomenon of “disgust” deserves greater attention within the field of veterinary medicine.
