When cancer is on your differential list, what can you do now to get the ball rolling?

In When You Suspect Cancer: Getting the Ball Rolling, Dr. Seguin will discuss diagnostic and staging tests to consider when neoplasia is suspected, along with supportive therapies that can be initiated while patients await more definitive treatment.

Dr. Seguin is an ACVS Founding Fellow in Surgical Oncology and Oral & Maxillofacial Surgery and a Specialist in Surgical Oncology, and we’re thrilled to have him joining our speaker lineup.

🧡 Thank you, Zoetis!

A big thank you to Zoetis Pets for supporting Vancouver Island Connections and helping us bring a full day of affordable, local CE to the veterinary community here on the Island.

Our goal with this event is pretty simple: learn together, connect with each other, and build a stronger veterinary community.

Support from our sponsors helps us do exactly that — while allowing proceeds from the event to benefit Volunteer Cat Rescue 🐱💛

Dr. Erinne Branter — Speaker Spotlight

🩺 Speaker Spotlight: Dr. Erinne Branter, BVSc, DACVIM (SAIM)

CKD and urinary disease are patients we manage every day — and nutrition, supplementation, supportive care, and product selection can quickly become a lot to navigate.

In Chronic Kidney Disease and Urinary Tract Disease Management, Dr. Branter will explore CKD and urinary disease in cats and dogs, including an in-depth look at currently available products and their practical application, nutritional and supportive management strategies, and management of conditions including urinary incontinence and urinary tract infections.

Practical internal medicine that you can take back to the clinic and actually use 🐾
