Are you joining us next month in Roanoke? Meet your keynote speaker, Dr. Katherine Burke Johnson! 👤🐾

Dr. Burke Johnson’s keynote will explore why veterinary medicine is more than a career—it’s a calling rooted in purpose, passion, and impact. She’ll dispel several long-standing industry myths and highlight why burnout in veterinary medicine does not have to be part of the journey. Attendees will leave inspired by practical strategies to pivot within the industry to enhance both their personal well-being and professional success.
