Welcome to episode #16 of Scrubbed In: The DVM Journey – the podcast where we dive into the wild, rewarding, and sometimes unpredictable world of becoming a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine. Today, I’m interviewing my dad, Kipp Gaynor, to provide you with insight on business ownership. Kipp Gaynor is a structural engineer who's spent decades building and managing a successful small engineering firm. While his field may differ from veterinary medicine, the core challenges of running a business—like hiring the right people, managing teams, navigating failures, and taking calculated leaps of faith—are deeply relatable to anyone interested in veterinary business ownership. In this episode, we explore how he built and grew his business, established a strong team of advisors and managed the personal demands of owning a business. These experiences offer valuable parallels for aspiring veterinary business owners looking to understand how to build and manage teams, make big decisions, or simply navigate getting started. Whether you're an aspiring entrepreneur or just curious about practice ownership, this episode will leave you with practical wisdom to apply to your own veterinary journey.
