Use Veterinary Examples

In a Consultation Scenario, a Pet Owner Expresses Concern About Their Dog’s Sudden Lethargy. Respond as the Veterinarian, Suggesting Potential Causes and Recommended Actions.

What This Prompt Does

  • Simulates a realistic veterinary consultation to provide a well-rounded, empathetic, and clinically sound response to a common client concern.

  • Helps model professional communication by demonstrating how a veterinarian might explain complex medical possibilities in clear, client-friendly language.

  • Encourages AI to reflect the nuances of veterinary reasoning—including differential diagnosis, triage advice, and follow-up planning.

  • Leverages real-world examples from clinical practice to improve the relevance and utility of the AI's response for training, scripting, or educational content.

Tips

  • Include Case-Specific Context: Add signalment (age, breed, sex), recent changes (diet, activity, environment), and timeline of symptoms to get more tailored outputs.

  • Clarify Audience and Setting: Indicate whether the answer should be directed toward a concerned pet owner in a casual consultation or used as an educational tool for students or staff.

  • Request Multiple Scenarios: Ask ChatGPT to provide several possible causes (e.g., infectious, metabolic, environmental) ranked by likelihood or urgency.

  • Use for Staff Training or Role-Playing: This type of prompt can be used to teach new staff or students how to respond calmly and professionally during triage calls or initial exams.

  • Layer Clinical Reasoning: Follow up with prompts like, “Now explain this to the client in non-technical terms,” or “Convert this to a discharge summary.”

Prompt

In a consultation, a client says their 4-year-old Labrador has been suddenly lethargic for the past 12 hours. No vomiting or diarrhea. Normal eating and drinking. Respond as a veterinarian by suggesting possible causes and explaining next steps. Keep the tone calm, professional, and reassuring.

How To Use The Prompt

Provide patient-specific information to enrich the realism and medical depth of the AI’s output. Define whether you want a professional tone, simplified client explanation, or student-level discussion.

Example Input

#PATIENT INFORMATION:

  • Dog Name: Bailey

  • Species/Breed: Dog / Golden Retriever

  • Age: 6 years

  • Sex: Female, spayed

  • Presenting Concern: Sudden lethargy over the last 24 hours

  • Additional Info: No appetite change, no vomiting/diarrhea, up to date on vaccinations, indoor/outdoor lifestyle

  • Client Profile: Concerned but calm, prefers natural remedies if possible

  • Desired Output: Empathetic explanation of possible causes, urgency level, and what actions to take next (e.g., bring dog in today vs. monitor at home)

 

Prompt Example:
“In a consultation scenario, a pet owner expresses concern about their 6-year-old Golden Retriever’s sudden lethargy. Respond as a veterinarian, suggesting potential causes (e.g., tick-borne illness, pain, anemia, toxin exposure) and recommended next steps. Avoid technical jargon and keep the tone reassuring yet clear.”

Additional Information

This prompt exemplifies the “Use Veterinary Examples” prompting principle—one of the most effective techniques for producing context-rich, accurate, and educational content. Rather than generating generic information, this approach mimics real clinical scenarios, helping users create practical resources for:

  • Client communication templates

  • Clinical role-playing exercises

  • Educational blog content or social posts

  • Training simulations for techs, CSRs, or students

By incorporating veterinary-specific language and realistic case framing, this prompt ensures the AI provides authentic, profession-aligned responses suitable for public education or internal team training.
