Beyond the Exam Room: A Veterinarian’s Guide to Health Insurance and Employee Benefits

 
 

Veterinary professionals devote their lives to caring for others. Isn’t it time someone looked after them?

In Beyond the Exam Room, employee benefits advisor Cory Friedman pulls back the curtain on one of the most misunderstood—and most powerful—tools in veterinary practice management: health insurance and employee benefits.

Drawing on over 15 years of experience advising hundreds of animal hospitals across the country, Friedman delivers a clear, candid, and actionable guide for practice owners and managers who want to build a benefits program that attracts talent, supports employee wellbeing, and strengthens the business.

This isn’t a textbook, and it’s not written in insurance jargon. Beyond the Exam Room reads like a strategic conversation—part playbook, part reality check, and part rallying cry for those ready to lead their teams more intentionally.
