Quotes from Tandem Leadership

“At Tandem, we believe every pet deserves a healthy, vibrant life. By bridging different silos of veterinary care, we’re delivering high-quality care that lets pets truly thrive—not just survive,” says Prem Sharma, CEO, a serial healthcare entrepreneur. “We are leveraging our experience in building large-scale, high-impact healthcare systems to enhance pet healthcare. An integrated healthcare experience not only improves the lives of pets and their parents but also eases the work of veterinary care providers.”

“Improving pet healthcare isn’t just about better care for animals—it’s about creating a smarter, more sustainable work environment that empowers veterinarians, reduces burnout, and attracts the best talent to drive the future of veterinary medicine,” says Dr. Khalid Aljabri, Co-founder, a medical doctor and serial entrepreneur. Khalid also believes innovation in veterinary healthcare can be extrapolated to human healthcare: “The drugs I prescribe to my patients and most of the devices I use in my procedures are initially tested on animals. So, why can’t we fix the broken human healthcare system by establishing a successful animal healthcare model?”

Why This Matters

With over 70% of U.S. households owning pets and veterinary burnout at crisis levels, the need for innovative pet healthcare solutions has never been greater. Tandem’s integrated approach ensures better care for pets while reducing strain on veterinarians.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) — Juuse Saros made 23 saves and the Nashville Predators ended NHL-leading Winnipeg’s franchise-record winning streak at 11 games, beating the weary Jets 2-1 on Thursday night.

Filip Forsberg and Tommy Novak scored to help Nashville snap a two-game losing streak.

Neal Pionk scored and backup goalie Eric Comrie made 28 saves for the Jets, coming off a 4-1 victory over Ottawa on Wednesday night.

Forsberg opened the scoring at 4:26 of the opening period. Ryan O’Reilly won a faceoff at the left dot and Gustav Nyquist sent a touch pass to Forsberg at the top of the circle, where he snapped a quick wrist shot through traffic past Comrie.

Pionk tied it with 8:55 remaining in the first with a slap shot from the right point that beat Saros high to the far side.

Nashville regained the lead with 4:31 remaining in the first on Novak’s power-play goal.

Jets: Playing back-to-back games in Ottawa and Nashville was a tough challenge for the Jets.

Predators: Not much has gone right for Nashville this season, but it did split the season series with the Jets. Each team winning their two home games.

Just before the horn sounded to end the first period, Saros stopped Kyle Connor on a partial breakaway to send Nashville to the intermission with a 2-1 lead.

Winnipeg went 0 for 4 on the power play, including a two-man advantage for 1:54 late in the second period.

Both teams are in action Saturday. The Jets host the Philadelphia, and the Predators are at the New York Islanders.
