    • Management

In today’s episode of The Veterinary Business Success Show, Brendan Howard is joined by Dr. Liz Barton to discuss how Micro-Learning can improve knowledge gain and retention in the veterinary field and beyond.

She has previously served as a Veterinary Surgeon at Frame, Swift, and Partners; a Veterinary Surgeon at The Cromwell veterinary group limited; Director at CIC; and currently serves as the Head of Communications at VetCt and the Co-Founder of WellVet.
