The Overwhelmed Vet Podcast
Ep. 57: Truth delivered kindly. Interview with Koryn Greenspan, grief counsellor
Why is it that so many owners have a bad experience at the vet around the passing of their pets, and end up putting in a complaint or sharing their frustration on the internet?
You may think owners get mad because we were not good enough to save their pets.
Think again.
Owners get hurt and frustrated when we fail to lead them through the hardest part of the journey with their pets.
And it’s our responsibility to be able to do this.
Luckily, you’ve got help in this episode!
Koryn is a Certified Pet Loss Bereavement Specialist and the founder of The Parted Paw, a professional pet loss and bereavement service.
In this conversation we discuss both sides of the coin: Vet vs Owner, and talk about how we can best support the owners so they DON’T end up having a horrible experience at our clinic.
Listen in and think about where you might be doing some of these things, and what you would like to change.
It’s not just about “being nice” to the pet owners. It also saves YOU a lot of time if you can tune in to the situation and be the human being they need in the moment.
