January 29 – 31, 2015 – *The OVMA Conference and Trade Show is the largest veterinary conference in Canada, offering world-class continuing education opportunities and the most extensive veterinary trade show in the country.
Each morning kicked off with plenary sessions that were sure to energize, inspire and motivate each veterinarian for the rest of their day. Featured speakers included Michael Brandwein, a management, communications, leadership, team-building and customer service expert, and Dr. Andy Roark, a veterinarian, author and speaker.
This year’s extensive education program focused on a range of topics, including Small Animal, Focus on Infection, Equine and Practice Management. The OVMA was pleased to once again offer their popular Master Classes and Workshops covering exciting topics like Management, Feline Urology, Behaviour, Ophthalmology and Ultrasound.
Dr. Scott and Dr. Wisener were the attendees from Lakeview Animal Hospital. Dr. Wisener was able to attend two days of lectures; Thursday and Friday. On Thursday Dr. Wisener attended lectures on behaviour/anxiety medications for dogs and cats, and on Friday she attended a full day of gastrointestinal disease lectures. Dr. Scott attended the conference on the Saturday which included her attending a full day of lectures on liver disease. They both also enjoyed the veterinary trade show and brought back some gifts and good information to share with all of the staff members.
