There was actually a lot of adjustment at the time, and she mentioned that she experienced obstacles as a newcomer; some of the older farmers especially were actually not used to the idea of having a female vet. She spent the next two decades working for doctor Pol and their rural clinic. Eventually, with her boss’s fame growing, the clinic was actually approached by television producers in hopes of creating a television show based on their daily endeavors. She joined the cast of the show which would become “The Incredible Dr. Pol”.

She was really not present in any of the episodes, and it seems that she will no longer be returning to “The Incredible Dr. Pol”.
