The Veterinary Project Podcast Part 2 with Current CVMA President, Clinic Owner, and Founding Member of Veterinarians Without Borders Canada Dr. Enid Stiles
Picking up where Part 1 left off, with Part 2 of our conversation with Clinic Owner and Current CVMA President Dr. Enid Stiles shedding more light on the CVMA, Enid's role as President within it, and the work they're doing for the Veterinary profession. We also discuss some of the challenges that COVID has put on Enid's position as a clinic owner including the use of Registered Veterinary Technologists, need for additional staff to handle calls, texts and e-mails from clients, and using new technologies to help with clinic operations.
