Welcome to episode #13 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, we meet Shannon LaMastra, current third year veterinary student at the Virginia Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine! Shannon and I dive into our friendship origin story and discuss her unique path to veterinary school. Shannon opens up about the study strategies that have fueled her academic success and how she manages the stress that comes with the demands of veterinary school. She also shares highlights from her clinical rotations so far—including the most memorable and surprising moment she's experienced on the clinic floor.
