Charlotte Weir, the vice president of partnerships for Roo, an online veterinary staffing and careers platform, the founder and co-owner of a small animal hospital, and the winner of the 2026 AVMA Unsung Hero Award, is this week's guest. Char's career has taken her from veterinary technician to practice manager, entrepreneur, and leader, with each step deepening her interest in the people behind veterinary medicine. She shares how her hands-on experiences in practice inspired her to tackle bigger challenges around staffing, career growth, and creating a more sustainable profession. Along the way, Char shares practical advice for us from her leadership philosophy centered on trust, communication, and working shoulder to shoulder with the people around her.
