I was amazed at the care you gave the animals and the efficiency with which you handled the caseload. No doubt, your facility has set the gold standard for spay/neuter clinics to follow. "

Syllabus

The four-day syllabus (Monday to Thursday) for the Private Vet Training program is customized daily to suit your needs and desires. To provide an excellent experience, we limit the student-to-teacher ratio to 2:1. Please note, however, that this does mean we have a limited number of spaces available for training.

Our goal is to polish your surgical skills, with emphasis on sterilization procedures (the high-quality piece); and second, and to enhance your organizational skills to make the most efficient use of time (the high-volume piece). A daily syllabus, therefore, may include but is not limited:

  • Spay/neuter surgeries;
  • Anatomy review;
  • Sterile surgical technique (ligatures, pedicle tie, overhand knot, incisions);
  • Surgical review technique (efficiency of motion, body mechanics);
  • Instrument review;
  • Surgical preparation procedures;
  • Identification and management of complications.

Our E-Learning section also offers best-practice video demonstrations from our team and colleagues around the nation.
