10. PracticalVetMed Philosophy
As referral medicine becomes more advanced, it by default becomes more expensive
There is a growing gap between general practice and specialty practices
These seminars intend to fill that gap
Everything we talk about this weekend can be done in a rural mixed animal practice with no emergency clinic or specialists within a few hours

11. GET THE SUPPORT YOU NEED TO USE YOUR ULTRASOUND MORE!!!
PracticalVetMed Philosophy
Our Goal for the Weekend:
Review common things in detail
Inrease and confirm understanding
Cover uncommon things in less detail
Recognize them and refer to the proceedings
Increase level of care at your clinic
And/or be better referring vets
GET THE SUPPORT YOU NEED TO
USE YOUR ULTRASOUND MORE!!!

12. PracticalVetMed Philosophy
Why classroom instruction rather than scanning?
Scanning CE almost always involves normal animals only
Real learning takes place when we learn to distinguish normal from abnormal
This learning takes place by default when you do more sonograms
Classroom instruction allows much more material to be delivered in the same amount of time, at a much lower cost
Supplement this material with scanning instruction in your clinic, on your cases
Self instruction, comparison referral, telemedicine, online CE & in-house CE
