Participant feedback:

The ultrasound workshop was really practical and applicable to general practice. It was great that we were able to use volunteer dogs and they were so well managed and cared for. I loved that we were able to practice each organ after we learnt the best techniques to optimise our scanning. Great workshop!

Veterinarian, Hamilton Street Veterinary Clinic

Fabulous course. Very engaging and so helpful in gaining confidence and skills in ultrasound.

Dr Kara Frost, BVet Biol/BVSc

Veterinarian, McIvor Road Veterinary Centre

Great opportunity to fine tune skills with easy to remember road maps for organ location and assessment. Well worth the time!

Dr Shayne Ault, BVet Biol/BVSc

Amazing! I feel alot more confident to be able perform ultrasound competently and diagnostically. Practical-based so you are able to put the lecture theory into practice in a learning environment.
