    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.

    Veterinary Breakroom: When You’re the Patient, Not the Practitioner

    Veterinary Breakroom: When You’re the Patient, Not the Practitioner

    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.

It’s tricky when sponsor overtakes content

I have to start by saying I have loved this podcast. I have always thought that I picked up really good tips and solid science but that has seem to be slipping… So your last podcast was the tip of vagueness and left me feeling completely uninspired. It went from a veterinary knowledge podcast to soft marketing for Hills I/d diets and absolutely nothing else other than constant repetition of how cats are hard to treat and food is tricky too. In the start Dr Little mentioned that treatment could only be implemented following proper investigation. At that point the host started talking about food… I would have loved to hear how she does approach her chronic constipated cat patients. At the very end Dr Little also mentioned that modalities like metronidazole which are in common practice are now in question to their benefit and potentially harmful - again now that’s interesting to me. That’s valuable to me as clinician trying hard to be the best vet I can be. If diet had been mentioned alongside that quality of information I would have really appreciated it, instead the host politely said goodbye. I challenge the podcast creators to listen to that 30mins and honestly decide what they truly learnt for that sacrifice of their time.
