Digital Tools: Your Mobile Phone as Your Best Team Member
Smartphone applications for companion animal practice, with a past president of FECAVA whose special interest is virtual veterinary care.
Lusaka time (CAT, UTC+2): 18:00
Presented in English. Live Q&A follows the lecture.
The smartphone in your pocket may be the most capable and least used member of your practice team. From client communication and appointment reminders to clinical calculators, drug references and virtual consultations, well-chosen apps can save time, reduce errors and keep clients connected to the clinic. In Session 03 of the VAZ CPD Lecture Series, Dr Wolfgang Dohne, past president of FECAVA and a practitioner with a special interest in virtual veterinary care, shows how to put that phone to work in everyday companion animal practice.
