New Vet Jumpstart Guide: Twenty common general practice cases simplified

by Ashley Gray, Monica Tarantino

Overview

Are you a current student in one of the toughest educational programs out there or a recent graduate? We see you, veterinary colleague! Your knowledge is vast, and you put in a lot of hard work to get to this point. Now, all you have to do is go out there and save some animal's lives, right? If only it was that easy...

Most new veterinarians, like you, find the transition into practice challenging. You no longer have oversight from professors and are still learning how to apply all of your medical knowledge. This can make even simple cases difficult when you first start out, and it often puts you in situations where you are stressed out, putting you at risk for easily avoidable mistakes.

Dr. Gray and Dr. Tarantino also experienced these same challenges and hurdles. After years of mentoring students and interns, they decided to create the V.O.T.R New Vet Jumpstart Guide to help you and make your transition into practice easier.

The V.O.T.R. New Vet Jumpstart Guide is a cliff notes version of twenty common cases new veterinarians will face out in general practice. It gives the new veterinarian a practical approach and breaks them down in a way that you cannot find in any other veterinary resource out there.

Each chapter will give you helpful information that covers:

• Simplified approach to common cases
• Straightforward diagnostic and treatment plans
• Client communication tips to cover all bases
• How to avoid common pitfalls

With our book in your hand, you will already be one step ahead of the game. Think of it as the holy grail of general practice. You get all of our tips and tricks in one place to get you DAY ONE READY!
