As a Director of Aniheal Hospitals Pvt Ltd, we are envisioning empowering fellow veterinarians to sprong boa4d their practice to form the largest partnership chain across the country. As The National Convener of the ladies wing of the IVA, I am working closely with the Indian veterinary association trying to improve the scenario for women coming into this male-centric industry. Also, we work with the government to provide amenities for women, across India, like equipment and staff to help the women vets and basic amenities like restrooms and etc., Additionally, we are operating together with VCI to improve and standardize the veterinary practice level across the country. We organize CE events with PPAT, where I am the treasurer. Also, I am a member of FASPAI, and as a part of that, we are helping to organize national-level educational events in the veterinary industry. Being the founder and board member of the NVF, I constantly try to bridge the gap and build a support system for the animals by educating more veterinarians. It is basically a foundation for veterinarians, like trying to fill the need for education, need for an internship, mentors and jobs, and everything for the community of veterinary professionals. The veterinary industry should become a more regulated industry. With that as the target, we provide training for support staff, like para veterinarians, technicians, groomers, pharmacists, and radiologists.
