12 Oct 2021
Veterinarian Dr Liza Schneider is one of New Zealand’s leading authorities in holistic animal healthcare. In 2003 Liza established – what is today – award-winning Holistic Vets in Tauranga – located in New Zealand’s spectacular Bay of Plenty region. Holistic Vets is a fully integrated veterinary practice combining conventional veterinary medicine and surgery with complementary therapies. This was the first of its kind in New Zealand. Liza is also the founding trustee of ARRC Wildlife Trust – that’s the Animal Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre. The ARRC is a charitable trust which provides veterinary care and services to rehabilitate wildlife and has been the recipient of community awards. Education is a key focus of ARRC, especially of children. To help achieve this ARRC has produced a series of children’s books illustrating the human impact on wildlife and what children can do to help. As you’ll hear today, throughout her veterinary career, Liza has sought and applied complementary and natural therapies which are easy to learn, practical to apply, and highly effective at assisting her patients to heal. She’s always believed that as a vet, it’s not simply her job to practice veterinary science, but it’s her responsibility to make sure she always gives her patients the best possible care; knowing that she’s explored every option to enhance their health. Liza has served as the president of the NZ Vet Association’s Complementary Veterinary Medicine branch since 2010. Over the years Liza has been recognised for her work in the community, her entrepreneurship and business acumen with several awards. Last year – in 2020 - she was the recipient of the New Zealand Veterinary Association’s Veterinary Impact Award which is bestowed on an individual who’s made a considerable positive impact for the veterinary profession.Liza delights in educating, inspiring and entertaining people about sustainable healthcare and the importance of preserving our natural heritage. Liza’s extremely passionate about what she does and what she believes in.LINKS FROM TODAY'S SHOWEpisode 049 - the first in the #SustainableVets seriesJulie's petition to help get more vets into New ZealandHolistic Vets in TaurangaAnimal Rescue and Rehabilitation Centre Wildlife TrustSustainable Vet Practice NZ - on FacebookSustainable Vet Practice NZ - on InstagramPaws Claws & Wet Noses at FacebookVetStaffleading veterinary sector recruitment in New Zealand | veterinarians | locums | nursesDisclaimer: This post contains affiliate links.
