What happens when friendships in your veterinary clinic start to blur the line between connection and cliques? In this episode of The Uncharted Veterinary Podcast, Dr. Andy Roark and Stephanie Goss dig into one of the most uncomfortable culture challenges in practice: favoritism. It often begins innocently, with a doctor and technician who click, who work smoothly together, and who spend time outside of work. Over time, that “we just work well together” energy can quietly turn into exclusion, frustration, and an uneven playing field that leaves the rest of the team feeling left out.Andy and Stephanie explore how favoritism shows up, why it erodes trust and collaboration, and what leaders can do when personal bonds begin to affect professional dynamics. They share practical strategies to coach your team, set boundaries without being the “fun police,” and rebuild fairness and inclusivity across your clinic. Whether you are a practice manager, medical director, or lead technician, this episode offers a clear path to strengthen your culture and support a healthier team. Let's get into this episode!You’ve spent another year juggling chaos, coaching your team between appointments, and wondering when leadership will finally feel easier.
