S5 - E1 - The Art of Veterinary Endoscopy meets the Science of Storytelling - Dr. Eugene & Ben Gorodetsky

The Art of Veterinary Endoscopy meets the Science of Storytelling Dr. Eugene Gorodetsky is a veterinary mobile endoscopist in Vancouver. Originally from Donetsk, Ukraine (then USSR) he arrived in Canada in 1990 with a pregnant wife & a pregnant dog, both of whom promptly gave birth.Among the litter of spaniel puppies was Ben,who did not grow up to be a veterinarian or a dog, but followed his own path, with a BFA from the UofA & MFA from Brooklyn College-CUNY. Ben is a performer, writer, producer, filmmaker & university lecturer.Ben is the director/host of Pinch Cabaret, an award-winning monthly variety show, & is former Associate Artistic Director of Rapid Fire Theatre.Back to Eugene, he estimates he has removed approximately 14,000 foreign bodies from dogs, cats, ferrets, birds, lizards, turtles, horses, pigs & one unfortunate lion. Eugene’s personal highlight reel of foreign bodies includes: a diamond ring, assorted brooches, a garden hose nozzle, door knobs, several rubber duckies, a string of intact Christmas tree light bulbs, seven feet of poop bags, Mr. PotatoHead’s tongue & not one, but TWO toupees! His endoscopy practice, BC Mobile Animal Endoscopy, enjoys a thriving social media following on Facebook.Back to Ben, who recognized that people want more of what Eugene is doing,his fans are hungry for more ‘strangely satisfying’ procedures. And so, “My Pet Ate WHAT??!!?” was born.
