    <description>IntroVETS is a veterinary podcast by introverts with high-functioning anxiety. The show was conceptualized in 2019 and launched in 2020 by co-hosts Lauren and JJ. Lauren, a veterinarian, and Jennifer, a Licensed Veterinary Technician in the state of Alabama, have over 40 years of combined experience in the veterinary field. The podcast presents veterinary case studies in a fun and relatable way, along with various sidebars, interesting facts, and new research. The hosts talk frankly about anxiety and other mental health concerns, going to therapy, and related topics. There is (hopefully) a strong humor element, as well as some philosophizing and opinion sharing. There is also the occasional moderately naughty word, but we try to not use the big guns. It's not really a formal environment - it's more of a veterinary hang, and we'd love to see you there!

  <description>In this case, a cat, who just happens to be a French sir, visits the hospital for routine lab work prior to a dental cleaning. He finds himself diagnosed with a condition that could have gone unnoticed had pre-anesthetic lab work not been performed.  Lauren and JJ discuss specific types of lab work and what the results mean to veterinary professionals, as well as the surprising controversy of whether lab work should be done at all. Seriously???
The ladies also discuss the importance of checklists as presented in Atul Gawande’s 2009 book The Checklist Manifesto.
