Fetch Virtual gives you the opportunity to hear from some of the most renowned experts and veterinary professionals in the industry.

Hear the extraordinary stories on leadership, diversity, and overcoming obstacles from our keynote addresses:

 
Brandy Duhon, DVM

Originally from Rayne, Louisiana, Dr Duhon was diagnosed with meningococcal meningitis at the age of 13. This cut off blood flow to her extremities, leading to gangrene in her hands and one foot, so doctors had to amputate both hands and her right heel. Despite this, Dr Duhon has embarked on a successful career as a veterinarian and instructor.

She recently moved from shelter medicine to the LSU SVM’s clinical skills lab to make sure the veterinary students have the skills necessary to be successful in their careers. Her success in training doesn’t stop there; Dr Duhon also manages the LSU SVM’s Disaster Response Team and works with the Louisiana State Animal Response Team to manage trainings for animal control officers, veterinary professionals, and first responders. She also coordinates the Disaster Response Team’s efforts responding to disasters.

 
Pam Hale, DVM, MBA

Dr Hale, Destination Pet’s chief medical officer, is a graduate of the Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine. She earned her MBA from St. George’s University. Dr Hale is a member of the AVMA and Georgia Veterinary Medical Association. She serves on the Dean’s Counsel for Tuskegee University College of Veterinary Medicine and the American Veterinary Medical Association Professional Liability Insurance Trust. She shares her home with 7 pups and her husband, Chuck.

 
Molly McAllister, DVM, MPH

Dr McAllister, is the chief medical officer at Banfield Pet Hospital in Vancouver, Washington. Her contributions to Banfield include developing the first functional skills training program, establishing strong professional conference partnerships, launching the Veterinary Emerging Topics (VET) report, and founding the Diversify Veterinary Medicine Coalition—a cross-business nonprofit with a mission of increasing representation for Black, Indigenous, and people of color (BIPOC) in the veterinary industry.

In her capacity as chief medical officer, she promotes the importance of health, well-being, inclusion, and diversity for veterinary professionals; the evolving role of pets in society; and the value of accessible quality veterinary care to ensure that all pet populations get the benefit of preventive care. Dr McAllister lives with her family in Camas, Washington, where she enjoys sharing her love of the outdoors with her husband, 2 young children, 2 dogs and 2 cats.
