Welcome to a very special episode of The Veterinary Roundtable! This week we are joined by Dr. Evan Levine who has caused quite the stir in recent weeks over his TikToks discussing veterinary medicine. In this episode, we discuss where the ideas for these videos started, if pets are a luxury, defining what affordable pet care means, if the human healthcare model would work in our industry, and more!
