"I believe that AI enhances efficiency in veterinary practice by streamlining workflows, organizing complex information, and reducing administrative burden—allowing veterinarians to dedicate more time and attention to the animals in their care. While these tools support the process, it is the expertise, judgment, and compassion of the veterinarian that remain central to every clinical decision.”
