How confident are you with providing veterinary care to your avian patients?
Avian consults can be difficult and stressful as they often present as an emergency because owners do not have an understanding of normal bird behaviour, nor the ability to recognise key symptoms that might indicate an important underlying problem.
While avian cases may seem complex at first glance, this course will give you the knowledge and skills to approach them with confidence and maximise the chances of a successful outcome for your patients.
Past Participant:
I enjoyed the Avian Medicine TimeOnline course. It was very informative, and I am glad that it will help me with my avian patients.
