Behavior Has Made Me A Better Person

Have you ever felt like you were stuck in your job but don't have any idea what else you can do in veterinary medicine? Tabitha Kucera, RVT shares with us how she stayed in general practice too long.  She found a way to climb her way out when she realized that there are so many opportunities in this field and that we, as veterinary professionals, are capable of doing so many awesome things.  Tabitha spends her days helping pet owners and veterinary clinics save lives and improve quality of life by using the combined tools of behavioral modification and her motto "better living through chemistry". It took realizing that taking care of herself was important too for Tabitha to improve her own quality of life.  Tabitha shares with us how, once she viewed herself as a patient as well, she was able to start learning how to manage her own high functioning anxiety- by getting help.  Tabitha says it best - advocate for your patients AND advocate for yourself.
