VIN IS COLLEAGUES SHARING KNOWLEDGE AND EXPERIENCE

Sharing your knowledge and experience while you receive insights from others is what VIN is all about. Over 260 of the most dedicated and talented leaders in veterinary medicine monitor and facilitate discussions that help us all be better clinicians while helping VINners like you manage your cases.

Consultants/Editors aren't the only ones who contribute valuable knowledge and experience on VIN. Every VIN member (yes, that includes you!) is encouraged to participate in message board discussions. VIN is a family of colleagues, and we can all learn from each other.

Are you a specialist who loves helping (and learning from) your colleagues? Contact Paul Pion (530-757-6881) or the Happiness Team for more information.
