How sick is too sick to call out? In this episode, the Dogtor Bros dive into one of vet med’s grayest areas—sick days. From fevers and migraines to mental health and maternity leave, we unpack what it really means to take time off in a profession that never seems to stop. How many sick days do veterinarians actually get? When should you push through versus stay home? And what about those “I swear it’s just allergies” days?
Join us as we share personal stories, unspoken norms, and a little guilt we all carry about calling out—plus some thoughts on why rest might just be one of the most underrated tools in veterinary medicine.
