The seminars

How I manage my most common clinical problems

 

In practice, you often have questions about cases that you are managing. We have designed this seminar to provide you with answers to many of these common clinical questions.

I have asked the speakers to discuss the management of the most common problems that they see in clinical practice. This seminar has been designed to present the most current information on the diagnosis and treatment of  many common diseases and disorders that you are commonly asked to manage in your patients. The main emphasis of the seminars will be to give you practical information that you can readily utilize in your practice- along with providing information on the current treatments being offered at the referral centers. 

Only the most critical information will be presented on each topic to maximize the material you take with you to your practice. Drs. Lappin, Oswald and Seim are internationally recognized experts in their fields and lecture extensively throughout the world.   Because of their involvement with busy veterinary centers, Mike, Gary and Howie  approach clinical problems very practically.
