"I’ve experienced the highs, lows, and hard-won lessons that come with building something from the ground up. That’s why I so deeply admire Dr. Vaclaw’s grit and determination in growing Allevio into what it is today. Clip Toenails for a Living is a grounded and inspiring read—equal parts hustle, humility, and heart. It’s a reminder that success is built on consistency, clarity of purpose, and an unshakable belief in the work that you do."

—Jonathan Clay, Grammy-winning singer-songwriter, composer of The Outsiders Broadway musical

“I had the honor of doing ‘ride-alongs’ with Dr. Vaclaw during the early days of his house-call practice. Watching him connect so genuinely with patients while managing the chaos and complexity of entrepreneurship was unforgettable. Clip Toenails for a Living captures that same spirit: humble, real, and deeply insightful. This is more than a book about podiatry; it’s a story of service, discipline, and carving out a meaningful path to success.”
