Clinician's Brief: The Podcast Clinician's Brief

When we prescribe short-term steroids for pruritic dogs, do we really know what happens next? In this episode of Clinician’s Brief Partner Podcast, host Dr. Beth sits down with dermatologist Dr. Fiona Bateman to delve into a new study examining adverse events associated with short-term steroid use. Dr. Beth reflects on the impact these results can have on clinical practice, and Dr. Bateman shares how a chewable tablet can benefit compliance and quality of life for pruritic dogs and their owners.

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, talks to Ray M. Kaplan, DVM, PhD, DEVPC, DACVM (Parasitology), about his recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Diagnosing Drug Resistance in Canine Hookworms via Fecal Egg Count Reduction Test.” Resistant hookworms are no longer uncommon, so Dr. Kaplan joined us to break it down. He details how to diagnose resistance by comparing pretreatment and 14-day posttreatment egg counts using a fecal egg count reduction test. Dr. Kaplan then explains how and when to use “triple therapy” in cases when resistance is confirmed.

Welcome to the Veterinary Breakroom! In the breakroom, Alyssa Watson, DVM, and Beth Molleson, DVM, discuss the important, relevant topics affecting veterinarians today. Clients with human medical training can sometimes cause frustration among veterinary teams when they challenge the veterinarian’s expertise in treating their animals. But in this episode, Dr. Alyssa and Dr. Beth candidly consider whether they, as veterinarians, might also make for difficult patients. Do they inadvertently impede their own treatment by self-diagnosing or attempting to manage their illnesses without seeking professional guidance? Listen in as they turn the mirror on themselves and try to strike the right balance between expertise and humility in the medical field.
