#39 Why It's Actually a Good Thing When Your Vet Makes Money

Talking about money in veterinary medicine can feel uncomfortable. but it's an important conversation.

In this episode of The Non-Traditional Veterinarian, I'm sharing why your veterinarian being financially healthy is actually a positive thing for your pet!

Somewhere along the way, veterinary medicine developed the expectation that vets should dedicate their lives to animals without talking about the business side of care. But the reality is that sustainable veterinary practices create better medicine, more resources, and more options for pets and their families.

When veterinarians are able to invest in their businesses, they can expand services, pursue advanced education, and bring new tools and testing into practice. That ultimately benefits the animals they care for.

In this episode, I break down why supporting veterinarians who build sustainable businesses helps push the profession forward, and leads to better care for your pet.
