“So I think all those things combined ultimately led me to the path of thinking about becoming a veterinarian. Initially I had thought of becoming a human doctor and then I volunteered at a vet hospital and I was like ‘I’ve landed.’ This is it. And at that point I felt really comfortable that I knew that I wanted to become a veterinarian.”

Our guest today is Dr. Omar Farías. Dr. Farías is a Senior Manager of Academic Affairs for Hill’s Pet Nutrition. We learn so much from him about his path to becoming a veterinarian and finding his place in veterinary medicine. He has great insights on owning a practice and making the switch to industry. We even have some fun discussions around travel and ways to convince your partner to make a big move with you. It’s such a fun conversation and we can’t wait to share this journey with you!
