How a Horse Vet Became a Comedian, Author, and Better Leader
Dr. Matt Evans joins AAEP Practice Life podcast co-hosts Drs. Travis Boston and Jessica Dunbar to share his unexpected journey from a veterinarian with little horse experience to an equine dentistry specialist, practice leader, comedian, author, and advocate for a healthier culture in veterinary medicine. In this episode, Matt discusses how he built his career in equine practice, and also explains how comedy became an important part of his professional and personal life. He shares why humor can help veterinarians manage imposter syndrome, build stronger relationships, and develop resilience during the difficult early years of practice. From writing down three funny things each week to using inside jokes to strengthen team connections, Matt offers practical ways to bring more laughter and connection into the workplace. Matt talks about his new book, his decision to take a sabbatical from veterinary medicine, and his mission to speak with veterinary students and teams about humor, mentorship, and overcoming self-doubt. His story is a reminder that you do not have to begin with perfect experience or complete confidence to find your place in equine medicine.
