About Pete the Vet's Podcast
From the publisher's feed
I am a veterinary surgeon with a passion for communicating my love of my work through writing, radio, television and the internet. My mission is to use the media to act as an advocate on behalf of animals.
I work in a busy 5 vet practice in Bray, Co Wicklow, Ireland, but I spend 50% of my working week on media work.
I've been broadcasting a weekly "vet spot" on my local radio station, East Coast FM, for the past thirty years, and I'm delighted, through Soundcloud, to now make this weekly animal-related discussion available globally as a podcast.
