It is a practical hands-on intensive one-day workshop covering the full range of commonly performed urinary tract procedures. These are fundamental techniques that all general small animal surgeons should know and be proficient to perform confidently and safely.
During the workshop the techniques will be explained and demonstrated before each delegate is able to carry out the procedure themselves under close supervision. You can expect to carry out numerous fundamental surgical procedures during the day with emphasis on how each procedure can be performed in a reliable and safe manner.
