A vet uses science every time he treats an animal. The vet uses his anatomy background to check the animal during a physical. He will use microbiology to determine the bacteria present, them switch to pharmacology to determine the proper antibiotics to treat the infection. He will use physics to carefully calibrate the x-ray machine to use the proper amount of radiation, and uses behavioral analysis to determine the best way to administer medication.

Is there any technology involved with a veterinarian?

How does a veterinarian use physics?
Veterinarians use physics to understand how x-rays work and how to work safely around them.
How does technology work?
use it
How do veterinarians get to work?

Would technology make veterinarians lose their jobs?
Yes. Some veterinarians who can not or are unwilling to adapt to new technology may find themselves losing out to other veterinarians who are more willing to adopt the new technology. As a whole, no.

New pet food is created by technology every day, and thus also new allergic reactions, etc.
