Betsy Banks Saul, Founder of Petfinder and Heal House Call Veterinarian (Part 2)

In the second part of this two-part episode, Stacy talks more with Betsy Banks Saul, this time about her new business venture, a franchise of house-call veterinary practices called Heal House Call Veterinarian. Betsy began thinking about this idea around 2013, and her top priority was to increase the quality of life for animals and for their people—including their veterinarians. Around this time, Betsy found herself frustrated and saddened by the fact that her own pets' veterinarians seemed less than happy, and didn't have the time to do the work they wanted to do. She started thinking about how hard it is to be creative and do creative problem solving when you're stressed out. She soon posed this question to herself: "How could we change the trajectory of veterinary medicine in the United States?" The answer was Heal House Call Veterinarian. The model is driven by the idea that if your vet isn't happy, they can't deliver the best medicine—and everything rolls downhill from that idea.
