What Your Vet May Wish You Knew: A Conversation With Dr Maria Brock
Send us your thoughts and topic suggestions!
Ever wonder what your equine vet is really thinking? In this honest and eye-opening conversation, Dr. Maria Brock joins me to talk about the emotional toll of veterinary work, common client misconceptions, and the reality behind why most horse vets aren’t in it for the money. We discuss the impact of abusive clients, burnout, and what your vet wishes you understood—both about them and the horses they care for. Whether you’re a horse owner, trainer, or just curious about the human side of veterinary medicine, this episode pulls back the curtain on one of the horse world’s most important but misunderstood roles.
