Osteoarthritis – the cause of many mobility issues in geriatric patients, combined with physiologic changes from aging and oftentimes obesity, contributes to a vicious cycle of pain, inactivity, and declining quality of life. This course will equip you with the practical knowledge of the best multi modal approaches for successfully managing the geriatric, arthritic, and obese dog or cat in your veterinary practice.
In addition to learning clinical strategies, the course will teach you how to implement those strategies and market to clients with pets suffering from these mobility-restricting conditions to jump start your business.
