As a child, did you ask lots of questions?
For many veterinary professionals, a desire to know how things worked (such as biology, chemistry, physics, etc.) came naturally when we were young. In fact, a love of learning is needed to grow and constantly improve in this field. There is always a new technology or device to try, an emerging medication to explore, and cutting-edge surgical procedure to practice.
For Dr. Fabian Rivers, curiosity played a large role in his success.
When asked what three qualities most contributed to his achievements, he answered with “curiosity, community, and composure.”
Quite fittingly, his mission is to, “Remain curious about life.”
On this episode of 21 Questions with Vet Candy, we meet the amazing Dready Vet, Dr. Fabian Rivers, and he tells us about his love for vegan goat curry and how he had to explain to "Megatron's" pet parent that he was actually a she!

Veterinarian. Musician. Author. Actor.
Those are the titles Dr. Greg is known for. And though he serves on multiple boards as a consultant as well as a mentor for aspiring veterinarians, he also understands that there’s more to life than just “work.”
In fact, the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics found that most veterinarians work full time, often clocking more than 40 hours per week – including nights and weekends. That’s a whole lot of time dedicated to caring for others. As such, vets need to be careful not to lose their sense of self and become consumed by work identities.
Remember, you are more than your job!
Dr. Shaw explains:
“My mission in life is to inspire the world to dream in a way that transcends professional or societal norms and to create your own path and own who you were created to be. Your purpose. Your dreams. Your way.”
On this episode of 21 Questions with Vet Candy, we learn about the time Dr. Greg bought a ticket to Thailand on a whim and how if he had a time machine, he would use it to go back in time to jam with Charlie Parker.

On this show, the other Dr. Jessica Turner is our guest. Veterinarian, Dr. Jessica Turner, worked for years first as an emergency vet and then as a GP. After years of balancing a career and mom life, she experienced burnout and was later diagnosed with an autoimmune disease, rheumatoid arthritis.
Rheumatoid arthritis (RA) is a chronic (long-lasting) autoimmune disease that mostly affects joints. RA occurs when the immune system, which normally helps protect the body from infection and disease, attacks its own tissues. The disease causes pain, swelling, stiffness, and loss of function in joints.
When faced with the possibly of long term steroid treatment and potentially ending up in a wheel chair, Dr. Jessica turned to holistic medicine to find answers. Now she's on the road to recovery and has become a passionate advocate for holistic medicine.

For millions of people (and pets) around the globe, life changed when Covid-19 hit. Before the pandemic, it was easy to book an appointment with a veterinarian. But during the scariest days of the virus outbreak, suddenly pet owners had to wait weeks before getting the veterinary care their beloved fur babies needed.
Unable to see as many patients as he normally would, Dr. Zonram Liao knew something had to be done.
Thus, Wellnergy Pets was born!
Dr. Liao explains, “I believe that pet care, at its core, starts with a proactive approach at home with pet owners. My goal is to improve the lives of people and their pets by providing the best at-home pet care in the form of high-quality pet products and supplements.”
From managing a pet’s chronic disease to helping clients avoid unnecessary trips to the vet, Wellnergy offers safe and effective solutions.
Get to know Dr. Zonram on 21 Questions with Vet Candy!

It takes a long time to become a veterinarian.
In addition to elementary school and high school, there is undergrad and then another several years completing a DVM. But when all is said and done, endless opportunities await, and that’s a very exciting feeling.
For Brittney Kilgore, every second has been worth it.
In addition to all that schooling, she has been a veterinary technician and assistant for seven years. Now, the doors are wide open for her.
Dr. Kilgore’s ultimate mission in life?
“To be happy within and outside of my career,” she says. “I want to continue to open the doors to less common avenues of veterinary medicine such as feline only medicine and integrative practices while also emphasizing how important it is to maintain your life outside of work with relationships, your health, and your own leisure.”
In five years, she hopes to be “my same self but a little wiser and experienced.” And (if the stars align) also open her own feline only hospital in the future!
Meet this veterinary rising star on 21 Questions with Vet Candy.
