Navigating spinal disorders in Veterinary Practice
Spinal conditions, like Intervertebral disc disease, can be devastating to both patients and owners, with potential poor outcomes when not managed appropriately.

We will be looking at neuro localizing spinal lesions and the appropriate decision making with regards to further diagnostics and treatment plans. A proper neurological examination is vital to rule out confusor cases and ensure appropriate care is given to patients.
