Hello,

My name is Janina Krajewski but locally I’m known as Dr. Nina. Instead of referring to the details of what we offer to our veterinarians which can be discussed via a Zoom call or in person, I would like to tell you a little about myself and how I run my practice differently.

I don’t presume to know it all, in fact, I’m constantly learning… but what I do know is that in the past 20 years of practicing I have noticed a huge transition within our industry. Some of the changes are positive, but some, especially the corporate takeovers are not. Here is the thing, I am a product of that problem to a certain degree. I had two very successful practices that I started from scratch and ran for many years, I had a great team and overall, I was very happy. Then one of my associates wanted to move out of state closer to family and I decided to sell the practice she ran. Well, that practice led to me selling both of my practices. I was assured that I could continue to work and run these locations as I had for many years previously. You would think that a corporation buying out a successful business would want to keep its successful recipe going, but I was wrong. I fulfilled my contractual obligation and I moved on. I just couldn’t understand some of the fundamental decisions that were being made.

Today, I’m in the process of rebuilding. It’s not easy to start a new business but I’m back at it and I feel great about being able to put my team, my medicine, my patients, and my clients first. I’m not being asked for numbers each week and month, because we all know that numbers sometimes don’t tell the entire story. Instead of cutting costs at the expense of my team or patients, we build long-lasting relationships, we know our clients and we listen to them. While I am not here to bash the entire corporate world, I do believe that there is a different way to run a business when you don’t have to manage hundreds of locations. I can tell that my team is willing to work harder and show initiative when they don’t have to go through layers of management waiting for approvals. Nothing like dealing with the owner directly to address concerns and solve challenges on the spot.

Sometimes it’s hard to understand the entire culture of a business when the recruiting teams say all the right things, but I’m here to tell you that there is a better way within our industry to enjoy our profession. There is a way to balance work and life, there is a way to provide great customer service and medical care… while taking advantage of all the benefits and financial incentives.

If you are interested in hearing a little more about my practice, our team here, and the great community we live in, please reach out to me.  You can call or text me directly at (941)600-3122 (my cell) or email me at nina@wellnessah.com. I would love to speak to you.
