Care Beyond a Cure: Amazing Advances in Veterinary Oncology-2010

The goal of the interactive lectures is to update the veterinarian and veterinary health care team using practical, effective and most up-to-date techniques to diagnose and effectively treat cancer while supporting the client. Cancer is different than any other disease we treat in that it is a disease of emotion…therefore, we must dissolve the fears by using effective therapies to enhance quality of life by battling discomfort, nausea, and anorexia, while battling the cancer. Each lecture has been revised and updated while being concise, practical and illustrated with many pictures and videos. Everyone will be intrigued how we use this as a blueprint to develop a dynamic bond centered on the patient, client and professionals.
