What happens when “gold standard” care starts breaking the people delivering it? And what do you do when the life you were promised in vet med doesn’t match the reality you’re living?

Join host Dr. Gershon Alaluf and special guest Dr. Sheddy (The Sailing Vet) for an insightful, deeply honest episode of Irreplaceable Truths. After experiencing burnout, ethical tension, and mounting moral injury in traditional practice, Dr. Sheddy walked away — and built a floating veterinary clinic delivering care to animals in remote coastal communities.

This conversation dives into moral injury vs burnout, corporate pressure, rural limitations, empathy overload, therapy, and what autonomy really changes in a veterinarian’s life.
