Dr. Pam Unleashed Podcast

Because your pet deserves more than a 15-minute appointment and a prescription.

I’m Dr. Pam Montgomery-Fittz – functional medicine veterinarian, and probably not like any vet you’ve met before.

For nearly 30 years, I’ve been asking the question most appointments don’t have time for: why is this animal sick in the first place? Not what to suppress or manage – but what’s actually driving it. Food. Gut health. Genetics. Environment. Stress. It’s rarely just one thing, and it’s almost never what it looks like on the surface.

This podcast is where I share what I’ve learned from nearly three decades of treating the whole animal – not just the symptom in the room. Real cases. Real answers. The kind of information that changes how you see your pet’s health.

If you’ve been feeling like there has to be more to it than this… you’re probably right.
