Pet Loss and Veterinarians Who Cry: with Veterinary Oncologist and Author Dr. Renee Alsarraf
Manage episode 420485997 series 3260465
Nobody likes to talk about pet loss… but everybody wants to talk about pet loss. What a difficult scenario that is! Veterinary oncologist Dr. Renee Alsarraf, author of Sit, Stay, Heal, joins us to talk about grief, professionalism, and the importance of being human - on the job and off.
In this episode we cover:
- The whole truth about loving - and losing - your pets
- The terrible advice Dr. Renee Alsarraf’s grad school teacher gave her (and why she refused to listen)
- Why vets and other professionals should really NOT check their human emotions at the door
- When it’s time to welcome a new love into your life (human or otherwise)
- How Dr. Alsarraf’s experience with veterinary oncology did (and didn’t) prepare her for her own cancer diagnosis
We're re-releasing some of our favorite episodes from the first 3 seasons. This episode was originally recorded in 2022.
