Leading the Team: The People Side of Veterinary Practice
You didn't go to vet school to manage conflict, navigate tough conversations, or figure out why your best tech just handed in their notice. But here you are, running a practice where the people stuff can feel just as demanding as the medicine.
In this webinar, Greg Toner from VetCPA and Rachelle Richard from Goodvet sit down to talk about what really drives connection inside a veterinary practice and what happens when it breaks down. Together, they'll explore why communication gaps and unspoken frustrations quietly erode team culture, and what practice owners can do to turn things around before burnout takes hold.

Rachelle Richard | Founder of Goodvet
Rachelle Richard is the founder of Goodvet, a Canadian veterinary recruitment agency, and boop, a veterinary apparel brand built to celebrate the teams behind the medicine.
Her work is rooted in a simple belief: the right team, in the right culture, is one of the most powerful forces in veterinary wellbeing.

Goodvet works with independently owned practices across Canada, placing AVMA-accredited DVMs through a relationship-first approach that prioritises values alignment, team dynamics, and long-term sustainability over speed-to-fill.
