from Clinician's Brief: The Podcast · host Brief Media
Welcome to the Veterinary Breakroom! In the breakroom, Alyssa Watson, DVM, and Beth Molleson, DVM, discuss the important, relevant topics affecting veterinarians today. Clients with human medical training can sometimes cause frustration among veterinary teams when they challenge the veterinarian’s expertise in treating their animals. But in this episode, Dr. Alyssa and Dr. Beth candidly consider whether they, as veterinarians, might also make for difficult patients. Do they inadvertently impede their own treatment by self-diagnosing or attempting to manage their illnesses without seeking professional guidance? Listen in as they turn the mirror on themselves and try to strike the right balance between expertise and humility in the medical field.Contact us:[email protected] to find us:Youtube.com/@clinicians_briefCliniciansbrief.com/podcastsFacebook.com/cliniciansbriefTwitter: @cliniciansbriefInstagram: @clinicians.briefThe Team:Alyssa Watson, DVM - HostBeth Molleson, DVM - HostAlexis Ussery - Producer & Multimedia SpecialistThis podcast recording represents the opinions of Dr. Alyssa Watson and Dr. Beth Molleson.
