More than just a vet - Veterinary Life Journeys

(I'm having a break from podcasting - Keep an eye on here site for updates)- Veterinary life journeys. TV programs always present veterinary professionals as pet-loving people whose only worries lay at the practice, but vets are human too and make mistakes sometimes. Not only at work, but in life. I thought, if animal lovers saw our humanity, they would understand us better. And if they can understand us better, our animals would reap the benefit. Welcome to https://morethanjustavet.net podcast. A veterinary podcast exploring the human side of veterinary professionals.* All guests' comments and opinions expressed are solely their own and do not necessarily express the views or opinions of the podcast(er) or interviewer(s).#mtjav #mtjav_guest #podcast #veterinary podcast
