VetCPD launches two-part toxicology course
Aimed at vets and veterinary nurses, the course is being tutored by emergency and critical care specialist Susanna Solbak from Lumbry Park Veterinary Specialists.

VetCPD has launched a two-part online toxicology course running in July and August.
Tutored by emergency and critical care specialist Susanna Solbak, the course will cover how to approach any toxin exposure in small animal practice.
