Veterinary Echocardiography Day Course: Bromley (Southeast London)

Hands-on echo day for beginners and improvers, small group teaching, spaces limited to 4 people. Led by Echocardiographer Catherine Stowell. Thursday 7th of May, 10am – 4pm. £750 per person. Lunch included. Three protocols to choose from: focused (for emergency vets or those just starting their echo journey), full or advanced. Covering dogs and cats. As groups are so small, each person can work towards their own personal learning objectives and master the protocol of their choice. Focusing mainly on the left-sided views in dogs and cats, you will have several hours of guided scanning time.” – this is contradictory. We have to choose one or the other. Either they choose a protocol, or we focus mainly on left-sided views. Since what’s her name said she wanted to do left-sided, let’s say that, so remove (on this occasion) the part about three protocols to choose from.

6 hours of scanning time in a relaxed, supportive environment

One of the major barriers to learning echocardiography as a GP or emergency veterinarian, is getting sufficient time to practice your skills. Another problem is the lack of real-time, expert feedback, so that you know whether or not you are “doing it right.” All of this means that vets who have invested a lot of time (and money!) in learning the theory of echo, often lack the confidence to put it into practice and begin offering an echo service.

 

What makes our course unique

• Equal representation of feline and canine patients – most echo courses exclude or underrepresent cats, yet these are usually our most challenging patients!
• Student:teacher ratio of 2:1.
• No lectures – you will spend all day scanning.
