“Your pets that you’re caring for have parents. And those are your clients who see face to face and so, you know, it may be more difficult to say this to someone, ‘Hey, I’m raising costs on you.’ So, that’s very difficult but certainly in this environment where a lot of the input costs are rising.”

Our guest today is Dana Peterson. Dana is the chief economist at The Conference Board. She was also a keynote speaker at the 2021 AVMA Business and Economic Forum. In this episode, we talk about why veterinarian should care about economics and how it impacts the day to day workings of the profession. Dana does a great job of sharing small step veterinarians can take to learn a bit more about general economics as well as examples that practices could implement to improve their financial outlook. It’s a great conversation and we cannot wait to share this journey with you.
