For this episode, we spoke to Simon Patchett about his veterinary career so far.  Simon graduated from Nottingham Vet School in 2018 having intercalated a postgraduate certificate in veterinary education. From there he started a rotating internship in a private multidisciplinary referral hospital, upon completion joined the out of hours team there.  He has since moved to a sole charge role as an out of hours vet and we chat through each of these challenges.  Simon tells us how COVID effected his working pattern and the highs and lows of living in a camper van!  Our clinical discussion this week is about the challenges of diagnosing and treating pancreatitis cases... would you give steroids?
