Many vets will be keen to teach surgical skills but are unsure where to start. Will my neutering technique be ok, what if something goes wrong with the surgery? How much will the students expect to do?

This webinar demonstrates how we teach neuter surgeries and will give the latest top tips for a safe and speedy surgery to maximise the experience for yourself and your student while ensuring the pet is safe.
