Strap in for a riveting discussion with Rachel Oman, the investigator behind an innovative approach to managing obstructive urolithiasis in small remnants. We will unravel the complexities of her modified tube cystostomy technique to manage obstructive urolithiasis in small ruminants. Rachel will share the lessons learned from her journey, highlighting the pivotal role of patient selection and the necessity of pre-planning for urethra patent restoration. She'll also provide an inside look into the financial aspects surrounding the treatment of obstructive urolithiasis, an often overlooked yet significant factor in veterinary care.

Our conversation also takes a realistic look at the potential drawbacks of Rachel's technique, particularly in a field setting - the risk of re-obstruction and the need for both veterinarians and clients to be prepared for it. We'll explore the peculiarities of goat diets, and the crucial role of comprehensive home management in securing successful treatment outcomes. You'll hear from co-hosts Sarah Wright and Lisa Fortier as we delve into the significant impact Rachel's work has had on the field of veterinary medicine. Lastly, we'll touch on the indispensable role that research plays in veterinary care, and take a moment to appreciate journals like JAVMA, which facilitate such essential care. Be sure to tune in, absorb Rachel's valuable insights, and let us know your thoughts by leaving a rating and review on your preferred podcast platform.
