What We’ve Learned in 70+ Years in Veterinary Medicine
<h1>What We've Learned in 70+ Years in Veterinary Medicine</h1><p><strong>with Dr. Judy Morgan & Dr. Ruth Roberts</strong></p><br><p>Season 2 opens with a conversation Dr. Ruth has wanted to have for years. She welcomes Dr. Judy Morgan, nationally recognized integrative veterinarian, best-selling author of nine books, and host of the Naturally Healthy Pets podcast, for an honest look at the road from conventional training to natural, root-cause care.</p><p>Across 70+ combined years in practice, they reflect on vet schools that taught "feed KD" and "steroids for everybody," the near-total absence of real nutrition education, and the bravery of "see one, do one, teach one" emergency medicine. They get candid about how corporate consolidation, rigid "gold standard" protocols, and understaffed clinics have squeezed compassion out of the exam room, and why they believe the people who will truly change the profession are pet parents themselves. Most of all, it's a hopeful episode about food as the foundation of healing, the power of asking "why," and how to be a calm, prepared advocate for your pet.</p><br><p><strong>WHAT YOU'LL LEARN</strong></p><p><br></p><ul><li>Why change comes from informed pet parents, not the pharma or pet-food industries</li><li>The huge gaps vet school leaves around nutrition and root-cause care</li><li>Why whole foods, and tailoring "hot" vs. "cooling" diets, can transform health in weeks</li><li>How to treat the root cause instead of chasing symptoms</li><li>How corporate medicine and 15-minute appointments burn out good vets</li><li>How to prepare for a vet visit, use a body map, and advocate with civility</li></ul><p><br></p><br><p><strong>TIMESTAMP</strong></p><p>00:00 Welcome to Season 2</p><p>00:29 Meet Dr. Judy Morgan</p><p>03:05 Two vets trained in the same conventional era</p><p>05:49 Change is driven by pet parents</p><p>06:36 Updating "From Needles to Natural"</p><p>09:13 None of this was in the vet-school syllabus</p><p>10:34 "Feed KD" and "steroids for everybody"</p><p>13:43 How little nutrition training vets receive</p><p>17:24 "See one, do one, teach one" emergency medicine</p><p>19:51 How the profession lost its compassion</p><p>24:10 "Gold standard" vs. caring for the animal</p><p>28:22 The case that changed everything: chiropractic</p><p>37:20 The case against one-size-fits-all medicine</p><p>39:34 Food as the foundation, discovering "killer diet"</p><p>44:05 The beagle puppy and "hot" vs. "cooling" foods</p><p>47:16 Corporate vs. independent staffing</p><p>54:48 How pet parents can prepare for a vet visit</p><p>1:01:07 Getting a second opinion</p><p>1:05:45 Supporting independent practices</p><p>1:09:40 Be your pet's advocate</p><p>1:11:18 What keeps Dr. Judy going: faith and calling</p><p>1:13:31 Listener gift: 50% off books with code DRRUTH50</p><br><p><br></p><h2>Resources & Links</h2><p>Ready to transform your pet’s health naturally?

Transforming Pet Health with Traditional Chinese Medicine
<p>In this episode of Healing Tails, Dr. Ruth Roberts welcomes Dr. Chris Bessent back to the podcast for a fascinating conversation about Chinese herbal medicine and how it can transform the way we care for our animals.</p><br><p>Dr. Bessent shares the inspiration behind her book, Two Paths to the Summit, which explores how both Western medicine and Traditional Chinese Medicine are simply different paths toward the same goal: helping animals achieve better health. While the language may sound very different, many of the concepts in Chinese medicine align closely with what we understand in modern biomedical science.</p><br><p>Together, Dr. Ruth and Dr. Bessent talk about why Chinese herbal medicine can be such a powerful tool, especially when working with chronic conditions in pets. From digestive issues and anxiety to inflammation and aging-related concerns, herbal formulas can offer gentle but effective support when used thoughtfully.</p><p>They also discuss why Chinese medicine can feel overwhelming at first. The terminology, the patterns, and the philosophy can seem unfamiliar, but once you start to understand the foundations, it becomes a powerful way to think about health and disease.</p><br><p>This conversation also introduces <strong>The Herbal Blueprint</strong>, a new course designed to help veterinarians, vet techs, and holistic pet health professionals build confidence using Chinese herbs in practice. The course walks practitioners through foundational concepts, practical case examples, and a structured way to begin adding herbal tools to their clinical toolbox.</p><br><p>If you've ever been curious about Chinese herbal medicine but weren’t sure where to start, this episode is a great introduction to the possibilities.</p><br><p>About Healing Tails:</p><p>Join Dr. Ruth Roberts as she interviews leading experts in holistic pet health, empowering pet parents to become healers for their beloved companions through natural, effective approaches that work for real life, real budgets, and real pets.</p><br><p>👍 If this episode helped you, please:</p><ul><li>Like and subscribe for more holistic pet health content</li><li>Share with other pet parents who need hope</li><li>Comment with your ozone therapy questions</li><li>Ring the notification bell for new episodes</li></ul><h3><strong>Connect with Dr. Ruth Roberts:</strong></h3><ul><li><strong>Website:</strong> <a href="https://drruthroberts.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">DrRuthRoberts.com</a></li><li><strong>Holistic Pet Health Coach Certification:</strong> <a href="https://holisticpethealthcoach.com/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">HolisticPetHealthCoach.com</a></li></ul><p><br></p><p>Disclaimer: This podcast is for educational purposes only and is not intended to replace professional veterinary advice.
