Continuing Professional Development.

In a world of continuous change and advancement, Continuing Professional Development is essential if we are to maintain a modern and up to date approach to veterinary medicine and surgery, and provide the best possible service for our clients. But what is CPD?

In real terms it means attending conferences, seminars and practical courses in new and latest techniques. Investing in new equipment as necessary and acquiring the necessary skills to take best advantage of it. CPD applies to all our members of staff, including receptionists and office staff, nurses and veterinary surgeons.

Philip, the practice principal, has attended the British Small animal Veterinary Association conference and the Veterinary Endoscopy Society Conference in the USA and continues to study advanced endoscopic techniques. He has spent time with human surgeons studying techniques used in hospitals and applies the knowledge gained to his own patients. Philip has also written and edited the "BSAVA Manual of Endoscopy and Endosuirgery in the dog and cat" and continues to lecture to other vets all around the UK and abroad, teaching both rigid and flexible surgical endoscopy.

Georgie, our senior veterinary surgeon has completed several courses in small animal madicine this year.

We take our responsibilities seriously, and strive hard to continuously improve and update our services. To this end we actively encourage, and fund, CPD courses for all our staff.
