Support Services for Veterinary Professionals & Pet Owners

SHARE NOW

 

I’ve had the privilege to have known many veterinary professionals, from veterinarians, veterinary nurses and veterinary technicians over the years who have provided quality care to my pets. These professionals have challenges that most people are unaware of. Besides taking care of our animals, they also have to help their human clients deal with issues such as pet loss and bereavement. There’s also a high rate of compassion fatigue and suicide among veterinary professionals, which is tragic.

During this episode of the Animal Academy Podcast, I am honored to speak with Dr. Lori Kogan and Dr. Sheri Berger so they can discuss the services they offer to the veterinary community as well as resources for pet owners.
