21 Questions with Dr. Craig Clifford Jan 03, 2023

Show notes

Loving what you do for work isn’t a requirement to have a successful career.

But it sure helps!

Luckily for Dr. Craig Clifford, the hours fly by when he is at work. That’s because for this veterinarian, medical oncology and improving the lives of pets is what he was made for.

“I truly love what I do,” he says.

Dr. Clifford is a graduate of Mississippi State University College of Veterinary Medicine and received an MS degree in Animal Science/Virology from the University of Delaware. Following an internship and a medical oncology residency at the University of Pennsylvania, he went on to later become a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (Oncology) in 2003. After that, it was off to Director of Clinical Studies and Red Bank Veterinary Hospital and Hope Veterinary Specialists, where he was their first medical oncologist and Director of Clinical Studies.

His more recent accomplishments are equally impressive!

From writing and co-authoring over 50 papers and book chapters to lecturing at major veterinary meetings in the USA and abroad, Dr. Craig truly embodies the saying, “Do what you love and love what you do.”

Vet Candy is delighted to have had the opportunity to sit down with Dr. Craig Clifford recently. He shared the best career advice he ever received and explained the three qualities that got him where he is today.

21 Questions with Dr. Amanda Steffen Dec 29, 2022

Show notes

Ever since she was a little girl, Amanda knew she wanted to be a veterinarian.

Now, with the title “Dr.” in front of her name, that dream has become a reality!

For this University of Tennessee graduate, being one of some 47,000 veterinarians in the United States is more than just a job – it is a calling. But unlike the thousands of other vet med professionals out there, Dr. Amanda Steffen has a very special (some might even say unique) interest…senior pets and aging care.

Grey muzzles? Adorable white fur?

Sign her up!

When it comes to older pets, Dr. Steffen loves educating owners about aging changes and how we can help our pets transition into seniors with grace, comfort, and happiness. Building upon her background in emergency medicine, general practice, and non-profit veterinary medicine, tackling older pet issues was the perfect next step.

Vet Candy is delighted to have had the opportunity to interview Dr. Amanda Steffen. Today, she shares her vision for senior animal care, discusses some of the problems facing modern vet med, and also explains why scheduling vacations is an absolute must.

Introducing, the wonderful Dr. Amanda Steffen!
