I RETIRED FROM VET MED!! Why I stopped practicing veterinary medicine | Twin Trees Vet Talk
<p>It seems like everywhere I go in Whistler people still keep asking about this…</p> <p><br /></p> <p>So I thought it would be easier to make a video, since it’s a really long answer, and it’s not something I really enjoy having to talk about everywhere I go. Now I can just say: “Go watch the video:)”</p> <p><br /></p> <p>No, I am no longer practicing veterinary medicine. I submitted my official retirement/resignation to the CVBC at the end of 2023. </p> <p>***</p> <p>On today’s episode of Twin Trees Vet Talk</p> <p><br /></p> <p>I discuss veterinary mental health and suicide, my experience with burnout in the veterinary profession. I share my personal journey in veterinary medicine, factors that led to psychological distress as a veterinary professional, and what led me to stop practicing veterinary medicine.</p> <p><br /></p> <p>We hope you enjoy this episode!

Good news for dogs with demodex & MDR1- mutation: Isoxazolines vs. ivermectin | Twin Trees Vet Talk
<p>On today's episode of Twin Trees Vet Talk, we welcome our very special guest, Dr. Vincent Defalque. Dr. Defalque is a Board Certified Veterinary Dermatologist in Vancouver, BC (Canada). We hear about a 6 month old Australian Shepherd puppy named Kenny that Dr. Defalque saw for a severe skin disease caused by demodex, a mite that lives in the hair follicle (this disease is often called demodectic mange or demodecosis). The classic treatment usually takes an average of 10 weeks with daily oral ivermectin, and the disease can be notoriously difficult to treat. Because ivermectin is not safe to use in all dogs (Australian shepherds, collies and several other breeds often have a genetic mutation that causes them to become very sick or even die if given ivermectin), Dr. Defalque used a new class of drugs called Isoxazolines off-label to help this puppy. And it worked!</p> <p><br></p> <p>We hope you enjoy this episode! Please leave your questions and comments below!</p> <p><br></p> <p>FULL BLOG POST: https://twintreesvet.com/blogs/vet-talk/good-news-for-dogs-with-demodex-and-mdr1-mutation-collies-shepherds-etc-isoxazolines-instead-of-ivermectin-for-parasitic-diseases-twin-trees-vet-talk-podcast</p> <p><br></p> <p><br></p> <p>P.S. I just want to add a quick apology to Dr. Defalque for taking more than a year from the time of our interview to finally edit and publish this episode (my excuses: busy life, chronic computer problems, and general burnout/ aversion of the veterinary profession). I appreciate so much you taking the time to share your knowledge and expertise!</p> <p><br></p> <p>WELCOME TO TWIN TREES VET TALK!
