We had a great discussion about the abstracts that were announced recently looking at burnout and medical errors.  David now being on the management side had some great ideas and thoughts on how we can improve these things.  His experience as both a technician and as a hospital manager gives him a unique perspective on how veterinary teams interact and grow together.  We also talked about veterinary technician education and how we can advance our profession.  Hope you enjoy this episode!
