From the beginning, Blue River PetCare never operated in a one-size-fits-all space. But ever wonder how we honor a practice’s uniqueness, while working to support the various styles of clinic operations? Co-Founder and COO Roy Jain talks all things operations on the latest episode of The Uncharted Veterinary Podcast with Dr. Andy Roark.

Compassion is at the heart of what veterinary professionals do—in fact, losing one of her heart dogs in college led Kristi Lehman, MSW, LISW, CCFP, our VP of DVMCenter and MN Pets, into veterinary social work. In Part 1 of this two-part VETGirl podcast series, learn about compassionate detachment and how setting healthy emotional boundaries can support both longevity and wellbeing in the field.

Tune into the Uncharted Veterinary Podcast with Dr. Andy Roark for a full episode featuring our very own, Dan Blumenthal! During this episode, Dan will discuss Blue River’s origin story, our approach to honoring the individuality of each practice, and helpful tips for practice owners considering a sale. He’ll also share some of the lessons learned along the way and offer insights into how to navigate the complexities of practice ownership transitions.
