Vet access challenges in Kentucky
Humid parasite climate
Kentucky humidity sustains mosquito, flea, and tick populations most of the year.
Metro appointment backlogs
Louisville and Lexington practices face high demand with multi-week wait times.
Farm schedule conflicts
Tobacco, cattle, and equine operations demand labor during weekday clinic hours.
Mountain road access
Winding Appalachian roads add hours to clinic trips from rural hollow communities.
