From making his teacher laugh in fourth grade, to hitting the road for 2,629 nights in a row with his wife, to using comedy as a tool for suicide prevention, Frank's story is a testament to resilience.
We also explore the particular pressures faced by veterinarians and dentists, focusing on the physical and mental strain these professions can induce. Frank gives insight into the unique challenges faced by women in these fields and the importance of pet insurance in alleviating financial burdens.
