In this episode of "Desk Wench Confessions," hosted by Caitlin Palmer, we have the pleasure of introducing Paola Domínguez-López, a dedicated veterinary technician and esteemed member of the American Heartworm Society's board of directors. Paola's unwavering love for animals has been a lifelong calling. As a child, her greatest aspiration was to provide care for animals in distress, especially those without a place to call home.
Paola's parents nurtured her passion for animals by involving her in agriculture programs like 4-H. Over time, she realized that her true calling lay in the field of veterinary medicine. Consequently, she enrolled in the Veterinary Nursing Program at St. Petersburg College.
During her journey towards becoming a veterinary nurse, Paola generously dedicated her time to volunteering at local animal shelters. These experiences eventually led her to secure a position at a nearby animal hospital, where she worked diligently and evolved into a skilled veterinary technician.
Today, Paola is living her dream at the University of Florida Small Animal Hospital, where she expertly combines her nursing expertise with her heartfelt commitment to shelter animals. She currently serves in the Veterinary Community Outreach Program within the shelter medicine department, allowing her to extend her compassionate care to shelter animals while pursuing her beloved career.

Every veterinarian has experienced burnout at one time or another. It is one of the biggest pressures on the industry, alongside student debt and suicide rates. After 12 years as an ER veterinarian, Dr. Ivan Zakharenkov was among the many veterinarians who are so burned out, they knew a change was the only option.
After so many years fighting to save animals on the frontlines, Dr. Ivan made the switch from helping animals, to helping other veterinarians. He chose to create a company instead with the focus on helping vet offices prevent burnout in the workplace.
That's why he created Galaxy Vets- a veterinary group committed to providing access to care for pets when and where they need it while supporting the mental health and well-being of our healthcare teams.

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.

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.

According to Psychology Today, perfectionism is a trait that makes life an endless report card on accomplishments or looks. When healthy, it can be self-motivating and drive you to overcome adversity and achieve success. When unhealthy, it can be a fast and enduring track to unhappiness.
What makes extreme perfectionism so toxic is that while those in its grip desire success, they are most focused on avoiding failure, resulting in a negative orientation. They don’t believe in unconditional love, expecting others’ affection and approval to be dependent on a flawless performance.
On this episode of Living Well with Dr. Jessica, we are joined by Ellie Fuentes who tells us how we can overcome perfectionism. Ellie is a private practice therapist at Clinical Insights in New Jersey. She holds a Masters in Clinical Mental Health Counseling from Fairleigh Dickinson University and is a Licensed Clinical Alcohol and Drug Counsel and a Licensed Associate Counselor in the state of New Jersey.

Although Dr. Serena Nayee, deeply cares about animals, she almost chose a very different path. She has always walked a fine line between human and animal health for a long time.
Although Dr. Serena has no regrets about her choices, one of the hardest career decisions she made was to choose between animal and human health. She believes both have a serious problem with equality and accessibility.
At one point during her studies, she actually considered leaving veterinary medicine for a path towards human health. Dr. Serena found it difficult to justify the cost of veterinary studies when there was such a huge gap to fill in the world of human health.
Fortunately for animals everywhere, Dr. Serena did decide to stick with her veterinary career. While there are problems with equity and fairness in human medicine, that problem is also in veterinary medicine. Her major goal is to help close that gap.
Dr. Serena believes that one of the biggest problems facing the veterinary industry today is the inaccessibility of education and healthcare available. She believes that education and healthcare should be inclusive for everyone, and that it should not be difficult to access.
That's why she created Chapter VII!
Check her out on 21 Questions with Vet Candy and learn how she's on a mission to make veterinary care accessible to all

Thank you to Trudell Animal Health for sponsoring this issue!
Happy New Year! This time of year when we think about setting New Year’s resolutions. We vow to lose weight, or work harder to get a raise at work. Many times, however, we are so busy chasing these smaller goals we fail to look at the big picture. What we should be setting are life goals.

Normal veterinarian attire includes many things. For example, a white coat, blue scrubs, stethoscope, cap, and pair of gloves.
But a crown?
Never.
Not unless your name is Dr. Debbye Turner Bell, of course!
That is because in addition to being a veterinarian, Debbye was also the winner of Miss America in 1990. Originally born in Hawaii, this communications megastar attended Arkansas State University where she received her B.S. degree in agriculture. Later, the University of Missouri-Columbia became home as she pursued her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine.
Who would have guessed that a veterinarian could also win the Miss America crown? Yet for this wonder woman, that’s exactly what happened!
Vet Candy is bubbling with excitement to introduce our listeners to the incredibly talented Dr. Debbye Turner Bell. Check her out on 21 Questions with Dr. Jill only on Vet Candy Radio!

Dr. Mira Tabet was 8 years old when she realized her love for animals. Ever since then, she was surrounded by dogs. Her first dog was her first best friend and partner in crime.
Her first pets fuelled her desire to become a vet and do her best to take care of every pet she comes across and not have any pet owner go through what she went through.
Her dream was realized in November 2018 when she opened her own veterinary clinic and founded Dr. Paw in Mont Liban in Lebanon.
She has loved every single day to the fullest and is excited to get to know you and your furry friends!
Vet Candy is delighted to have had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Mira to play 21 Questions. She shared the best career advice she ever received and explained the three qualities that got her where she is today.

Loving what you do for work isn’t a requirement to have a successful career.
But it sure helps!
Luckily for Dr. Craig Clifford, the hours fly by when he is at work. That’s because for this veterinarian, medical oncology and improving the lives of pets is what he was made for.
“I truly love what I do,” he says.
Dr. Clifford is a graduate of Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine and received an MS degree in Animal Science/Virology from the University of Delaware. Following an internship and a medical oncology residency at the University of Pennsylvania, he went on to later become a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (Oncology) in 2003. After that, it was off to Director of Clinical Studies and Red Bank Veterinary Hospital and Hope Veterinary Specialists, where he was their first medical oncologist and Director of Clinical Studies.
His more recent accomplishments are equally impressive!
From writing and co-authoring over 50 papers and book chapters to lecturing at major veterinary meetings in the USA and abroad, Dr. Craig truly embodies the saying, “Do what you love and love what you do.”
Vet Candy is delighted to have had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Craig Clifford recently. He shared the best career advice he ever received and explained the three qualities that got him where he is today.
