In this episode of Vet Life Reimagined, Dr. Christie Long shares her nontraditional journey into veterinary medicine and how fresh perspectives are helping shape the future of the profession.

Christie began her career outside of vet med in software and business before making a bold pivot into veterinary medicine as a second career. Since then, she has practiced clinically, helped pioneer veterinary telehealth, worked within large organizations, and now serves in a leadership role at Modern Animal, where she focuses on building sustainable, high-quality veterinary care models that support both patients and veterinary teams.

This thoughtful conversation explores identity shifts, career pivots, innovation, and failure — and what it truly takes to build a profession that can evolve with the needs of veterinarians, clients, and animals alike.
