    About the guest on Vet Life Reimagined:
    Dr. Levente Degi is a veterinarian originally trained in Romania where he was a practice owner. Inspired by a t.v. show from America, he decided to move his family, life, and career to North America to enhance the quality of care of his patients. He later started his own practice as a solo doctor building it from the ground up. A couple of years ago, he sold that practice and is now preparing to sit for the AVBP (feline) board exam. He also started a new way for veterinarians to gain continuing education in beautiful European locations. He believes that practical content in an intimate setting for conversation and half-day free exploration is the new way for veterinary CE.

    In this episode, you will learn about
    - Success tips for leading a veterinary practice
    - the challenge of admitting when you've hit burnout
    - the possibilities of achieving a dream veterinary career

  • Moving beyond perfectionism and efficency with Taylor Miller, DVM
    Jun 17 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    Medical culture may encourage and reward perfectionist and self-sacrificial tendencies. Our expert guest had to learn how to overcome these beliefs. Dr. Taylor Miller is a veterinarian and a board of directors member for Not One More Vet (NOMV). She works in clinic relief but spends most of her work in 1:1 mental health counseling with caretakers, individuals whose job description is often part of their personal identity and ask for self-sacrifice.

    Dr. Miller is a 2010 Oregan State University College of Veterinary Medicine graduate and in 2015 completed a Master of Science in Clinical Mental Health Counseling at Walden University.

  • "'Cause that's how we've always done it." Embracing Change with Dr. Lauren Jones
    May 20 2024

    Send us a Text Message.

    “'Cause that’s how we’ve always done it!"

    This is not the best way to run a hospital or even your career. Whether there is a need for change or not, it’s about being curious and leaning into possibilities. This is a huge part of Dr. Lauren Jones’ career story. Because of her belief that there is an opportunity for good change, Dr. Jones knew early on that she was interested in owning a veterinary practice, and she ended up owning two and being a mom to two small children.

    In this episode, we talk about some key characteristics of how to set yourself up for success in veterinary medicine including preparing yourself for possible change – change of all shapes and sizes. Change is how we grow as individuals and as a profession, so knowing how to do change well is crucial. Especially when we face a change that is tied to our very identity.

    About the guest:
    Dr. Laruen Jones graduated from the University of Pennsylvania School of Veterinary Medicine in 2010. After graduation, she worked in private practice with a special interest in canine reproduction and obstetrics. She has owned two hospitals at once and currently owns a hospital in Pennsylvania while living in Scottsdale, Arizona with her husband, children, and cats.
