Daniella Dos Santos, on acknowledging failure and going for jobs you're not qualified for

  • Summary

  • Welcome to the Veterinary Woman podcast! My guest today is a woman that will be very familiar to many of you, as she has been the public  face of veterinary medicine throughout one of the most turbulent years in living memory. As last year’s president of BVA, Daniella Dos Santos has navigated the profession through the challenges presented by the Coronavirus pandemic, doing so with grace, humility and great skill. 

    As you’ll hear in this chat, Daniella did a degree in molecular genetics at Kings College London before qualifying from the RVC as a vet in 2012. She has been in first opinion small animal and exotic animal practice since then, and is currently the Senior Vice President of BVA following her presidential year.

    We covered a lot of ground in this chat - widening access to vet school, why it’s ok not to get into vet school first time round, talking about our failures and why you should go for jobs you don’t think you’re qualified for. As ever Daniella speaks with frankness, honesty and good humour and it was a joy to chat to her.
