BE PART OF SOMETHING SPECIAL
Being a veterinarian has given me the gift of being not only able to change the lives of animals but the people within them. Learning the craft and knowing what I could do, what I could achieve as a veterinarian, it's kind of mind-blowing now that I look back. I am inspired every day to continue being a veterinarian because it gives me the ability to share what I do every day with my friends and family around the world.
​
I wish someone had told me value your time and what you put into this and how much work goes into creating a lifestyle from doing something that you truly love. This is something we breathe at Goodna Vet.
​
When I first started out, I was so thirsty for knowledge, and I really struggled to find all the information I needed. So when I see other veterinarians find that same level of joy that I have and have that belief within themselves that they can do anything, I mean gosh, we're not rocket scientists; but what we do is pretty special. So being able to share everything that I've learned over the years with our team, bringing them together, supporting each other, and encouraging them, I often feel like I'm just giving them more of what I wish I had. There's no bigger reward and being able to see someone achieve their dreams, achieve a goal, make an impact on an animal's life; whatever it might be big or small, it meant something to them…
