Summary
Burnout in veterinary medicine doesn't always go away with a vacation, a new job, or even a career change. In this episode, Don Adeesha speaks with Dr. Amber Parks about why burnout keeps returning, how chronic stress shows up in vet teams, and why neurodivergence, perfectionism, masking, and customer-service pressures can make the cycle harder to break. They also discuss why self-care alone isn't enough and what deeper personal and practice-level changes are needed to build healthier, more sustainable veterinary careers.
