Veterinary Breakroom: Confronting Violence in Veterinary Medicine

Welcome to the Veterinary Breakroom! In the breakroom, Alyssa Watson, DVM, and Beth Molleson, DVM, discuss the important, relevant topics affecting veterinarians today. This episode contains heavy subject matter that may be upsetting to some listeners. We asked veterinarians and their staff if they have experienced violent altercations or threats of violence in their practice and the answer was overwhelmingly yes. Join us as we discuss the four different types of workplace violence and what steps we can take to keep our teams safe at work.
