Description

Dr. Kate Moore grew up in Michigan but happily relocated to Southern California after gaining acceptance to Western University of Health Sciences. Since graduating in 2015, she has worked with exotics in several GPs, while learning acupuncture and laser therapy, until she opened her own house call practice in August of 2022.  Along with owning and operating Good Vibes Mobile Veterinary Services, she now also works as the primary veterinarian at the Santa Ana Zoo, where she promises NOT to steal any of the animals. Despite the workload, she also manages to find time to pursue her hobbies, some of which include sewing, watching football, painting D&D minis, kickboxing, going to Disneyland, taking her two rescue chihuahuas to the beach, and tending to her isopods.

Topics covered in this episode: 

  • Dr. Moore's journey into mobile house call practice
  • Burnout and rediscovering passion
  • Squirrel stories and wildlife care
  • Understanding emotional processing & authenticity in veterinary practice
  • The joy of snails
