A Different Take on Client Education

Looking for a fun way to give clients some insight into life as a veterinarian?

VetzInsight educates pet owners in a lighthearted and sometimes poignant manner by taking a sideways look at companion animal issues. Take a moment to enjoy some Halloween themed articles and fiction from years past.

VetzInsight complements the client handouts available from Veterinary Partner. Articles from both VetzInsight and Veterinary Partner are public and available for your clients to read any time.

Email VetzInsight@vin.com and let us know what you think, suggest topics, or submit an article for consideration.

Have your appointments changed in duration or number since the pandemic started?

Is your appointment book overflowing or are you struggling to stay busy? This week's Front Page Quick Poll wants to know what effect the pandemic has had on your practice.

Last week's Quick Poll asked when and how you test coagulation in your patients. Of more than 1800 respondents, less than 5% said they don't do them at all, while the rest reported performing the tests based on a variety of reasons including monitoring anticoagulant toxicities and liver disease.
