VMCAS experience "health professional"?

I am trying to determine whether to classify something as veterinary or animal experience. For veterinary experience, the VMCAS directions say "Veterinary experiences should relate to any veterinary clinical, agribusiness, health science, or research experiences that you have had with veterinarians, other health scientists, or other health professionals." What exactly counts as a health professional? Would someone with just a PhD be included?

If their PhD is in something health or science related, then I think it counts since it says "other health scientists". What are you trying to classify?

Wow! That's a tough one. Hopefully someone else can offer some insight.

I plan on putting down my ecology research with a PhD with fish as veterinary experience, so I would say do the same!
