At VetzPetz, we aim to bring together as many specialists as possible to discuss their approach to mobility in practice. With thought leaders and experts from across the globe sharing best practices and management techniques, the veterinary community will be equipped with the knowledge they need to provide 5* care for their mobility patients.

In this two-part free CPD series with CPD4Vets, experts from the USA, Italy and the U.K. explore protocols around long-term, holistic management of osteoarthritis within both referral and first opinion settings.

Drs Brian Beale, Bruno Peirone and Kinley Smith share their specialist approach to mobility, collectively exploring both traditional and non-traditional therapies and emerging opportunities in the field of joint health.
