Fostering a Community of Veterinarians
Rural veterinary practice often presents challenges of isolation, particularly for new graduates who have established professional connections during their academic tenure. Facilitating networking opportunities among veterinarians can effectively address the feelings of seclusion experienced by those in rural settings. Cummings highlights a study featured in the Bovine Practitioner, which qualitatively examined the experiences of recent graduates, illustrating how Heritage Veterinary Partners has leveraged these insights to foster a sense of community within their practice groups.
The discussion also encompassed the HPAI H5N1 outbreak affecting dairy cattle. Barnhardt and Strehle elaborated on their collaborative efforts within their practice group to manage this disease for their clients.
