Gribbles Pathologist Dr Kathryn Jenkins shares some cytology tips on how to maximise a diagnostic sample with a focus on FNA technique. Lincoln Institute Director Dr Gary Turnbull addresses the concerning global trend of veterinarians leaving their profession prematurely and specifically how this is linked to the potential for some vets to have a level of discomfort making thorough clinical recommendations such as diagnostic investigations.

The fabulous Dr Michael Hardcastle covers how to take Diagnostic skin and mass biopsies from horses, including endometrial biopsies. Michael’s presentation includes – indications, planning, collection, sample handling and submission to the laboratory, plus classification and considerations for interpreting results. Lincoln Institute’s Dr Gary Turnbull explores the fundamental nature of Conflict in Veterinary Practice – managing angry and emotional clients and colleagues.

Webinar 3

The wonderful Dr Kathryn Jenkins presents “The secret life of blood smears” – sharing some tips on making and examining blood smears, with some case examples demonstrating the value of blood smear examination in companion animals. Regarding the last slide in Kathryn’s presentation “should I check every blood film”; in an ideal world we should review a blood film for each CBC we run in-house. However in the real world, this may be unrealistic, and Kathryn recommends at a minimum to review at least every sick patients blood film (it may have come across as ‘every sixth film’). Lincoln Institute’s Dr Gary Turnbull explores the fundamental nature of Conflict in Veterinary Practice – managing angry and emotional clients and colleagues.

Webinar 4

Dr Geoff Orbell presents “Cutting the crap with calf scours“. Geoff’s presentation is about learning to improve your diagnostic hit rate for infectious causes of calf scours through better understanding of why histology and sacrificial post-mortems can be critical tools.

Amy Weeden presents “Biochemistry screening in geriatric cats and dogs“. Amy covered the clinical tests we commonly use to screen our older pets for disease; discussing next diagnostic step options when we do find abnormalities and answering some commonly asked questions regarding this important topic. Lincoln Institute’s Gary Turnbull explored Feedback – tell them what you really think!
