Episode 104: Unlearning The Traditional Approach With Periwinkle Kaur

Join us on this episode of "Veterinary Ramblings" as we welcome Periwinkle Kaur, the Director of ESU Medical Solutions. With a unique blend of medical expertise and business acumen, Periwinkle is on a mission to transform both the veterinary and private healthcare industries.

We kick off the show, true to our "veterinary ramblings" style, by delving into the whimsical topic of Periwinkle's favourite type of bread. But don't be fooled, our conversation quickly takes a serious turn as we explore the exciting realm of AI and chatbots like ChatGPT, discussing their potential applications in veterinary healthcare.

As we navigate through our conversation, we learn about ESU Medical Solutions and uncover the surprising similarities between human and veterinary medical equipment. Periwinkle's unique background in dentistry provides a valuable perspective on medical innovation that spans across disciplines.

Digging deeper, we touch on the deeply personal subject of religion and Periwinkle's thoughts on spirituality, offering a glimpse into the multifaceted nature of our remarkable guest.

In a global context, we explore the differences between the UK's veterinary industry and other parts of the world, along with changing attitudes towards animals and pets.

Towards the end of the episode, we present our "60-Second CPD" segment, where we discover the concept of unlearning. This leads to an in-depth discussion on how unlearning can be applied both professionally and personally.

We conclude our insightful conversation with a thought-provoking reflection question that will leave you pondering long after the episode ends.
