About Our Guest:
Dr. Eve Harrison is the founder of The House Call Vet Academy.
After graduating from vet school, Eve spent years immersed in the demanding environments of clinics, hospitals, emergency rooms, and operating theaters. The long hours left her feeling burnt out, nearly prompting her to abandon the profession altogether. Struggling with an imbalanced work-life situation, she realized the necessity of finding a more sustainable approach to caring for her patients, their caregivers, and herself.
Driven by this realization, she made the decision to establish her own house call veterinary practice, adhering to her personal vision. Today, Eve provides a nurturing and supportive environment, guiding others in crafting their own distinctive veterinary practices, tailored to their individual preferences and principles.
