Welcome to the Veterinary Breakroom! Join Alyssa Watson, DVM, Beth Molleson, DVM, and Katie Berlin, DVM, as they discuss the pressing issues impacting the veterinary profession today. While it’s become more accepted to call out for physical illness, fear of retaliation or stigma still keeps many in the clinic from taking needed mental health days. Listen in as our doctors explore the challenges mental health days can bring—such as guilt, understaffing, and leaving animals without immediate care—alongside their valuable benefits, like better patient care, a healthier clinic culture, and improved staff retention.
