🩺 The opportunity to work directly with experienced veterinarians and diverse cases, gaining practical, hands-on experience in a real-world setting.
🩺 Exposure to state-of-the-art diagnostic equipment and learning how to utilize these tools effectively in diagnosing and treating patients.
🩺 Receiving guidance and mentorship from skilled veterinarians who are dedicated to teaching and fostering the next generation of veterinary professionals.

Hey everyone! 👋 It's been a hectic few weeks, and we've been a bit quiet on social media. Besides our CPE training sessions, we've been providing veterinary care to rural communities.
It's been tough but incredibly rewarding. 🌟 We're thrilled to reconnect with our passion for veterinary medicine and share it with so many wonderful people. More updates coming soon🐾💖

Starting another incredible training session ✨🫶
This week we will be focusing on anesthesia protocols for the CPE. So while we are on the subject, here are few tips to keep in mind:
👉 Always double check dosages. Make sure you’re using the correct calculations.
👉 Practice the correct method of catheter placement as much as possible.
👉 Study the anatomy of the trachea to correctly position the endotracheal tube.
👉 Make sure to evaluate the basics of parameter monitoring before deciding to change the anesthesia gas flow.

“Dr. Jealiany is an incredible surgeon who has lots of practical tips. This hands-on experience with her was a shortcut for me to pass my surgery exam in CPE. She taught me all the solutions in every different scenario that I would have to confront during the exam. The hospital is very clean and spacious for everyone to work together easily and the neighborhood is safe and has many shops and restaurants nearby.”
