COS - 223 - Translating Human Medical Experiences To Vet Med

Kelsey Beth Carpenter RVT, or Vet Tech Kelsey as she's known to her adoring fans, is a registered veterinary technician, singer/songwriter, and all-around creative genius. Her humorous takes on veterinary medicine can be found across the internet, and today she joins the podcast to discuss what she has learned about veterinary medicine from her own journey as patient facing a chronic medical issue.

ABOUT OUR GUEST: Kelsey Beth Carpenter is a Registered Veterinary Technician, social media manager, singer/songwriter, speaker/performer, and content creator. Kelsey has enjoyed working in emergency hospitals across California for over a decade. At her most recent clinic, she fell in love with the open hospital concept, and is passionate about teaching others how to implement this structure in their own practices. Kelsey also works as the Social Media Manager for DrAndyRoark.com, a Content Specialist for the Uncharted Veterinary Conferences and Community, and the manager of her own growing brand, Vet Tech Kelsey. With a background in the arts, Kelsey is passionate about the power of creativity, the importance of humor, and the magic that happens when art and science overlap. In her free time (what’s that?), she can be found hiking, writing goofy songs about Veterinary Medicine, and dressing up her Chihuahua even though she swore she would never be “that person”.
