Stories from a Lifelong Solo Practitioner with Dr. Tamra Walthall
“And that’s the nice thing about being solo…is it’s my decision.”
Dr. Tamra Walthall, who is TVMA’s President Elect, has been a solo practitioner for more than 35 years. She opened La Vega Veterinary Clinic in Waco when she was just 28 years old. She didn’t plan on being a solo veterinarian, but it just worked out that way. In this episode, she discusses the challenges she’s faced over the course of her veterinary career, the benefits of working solo, and the lessons she’s learned along the way. She also talks about how she met her husband and their travels around the world.
