And we are back! We discuss c chronic otitis externa in the cat thanks to a great article in JFMS and have a great interview with Dr. Ameet Singh about why checklists are so important in human and veterinary surgery. So excited that we are on a roll again

We are back with a great interview with Dr. Karen Perry from Michigan State University, discussing everything you always wanted to know about patella luxations in dogs and cats. I also discuss a great article about gorilla glue and what happens when a dog (cats would never do that!) eats it. Last but not least, some news about cannabis usage and fat pet risks.

In this exciting podcast, we speak with Dr. Nick Bacon from the UK about the efficiency of CTs in diagnosing soft tissue sarcoma metastasis. Nick explains to us that it is not always useful to do a CT and tells us when we should and should not spend our money on CTs. We also discuss a UK article about uroabdomen in cats and we have a magic pen that can differentiate between tumor and normal tissue in surgery.

In this episode, we have an extra-long interview with Dr. Peter Lotsikas from Skylos Sports Medicine. We discuss his latest publication about the combination of total hip replacement and amputation in dogs. Peter has a fascinating story about his surgery background and the article. He explains that THR has become very advanced and that dogs with amputation do really well with a THR if needed. We end the podcast with a neighboring article from the same journal, where a new technique for stenotic nares is described, call DOR. Want to know what it stands for? Listen to the podcast :-)

The amazing Dr. Laura Selmic is joining me this week and we have an extra-long interview. I first discuss chronic constipation in the cat and doing a subtotal vs a total colectomy. Laura and I the talk about her career, statistics in general, and a study she performed looking at splenic HSA in small breed dogs in comparison to large breeds. Definitely a great episode.

In this week's episode, we discuss a new guidelines booklet that was published by AAHA, have a great interview with the famous dr. Bill Culp from UCDavis and for the first time ever we will discuss an article with one of the co-authors. Everything you always wanted to know about vulvavaginectomies.

This week's podcast we talk about a new study that looks at the relation between the age of the animal and spaying/castrating and the incidence of joint diseases and cancer formation. We have a great interview with Dr. Brandan Wustefeld Janssens about surgical oncology and his new podcast. We end with 2 nature discussions about how reading articles is becoming quite a task and why you should read one article a day to keep the doctor away.

After being away for a while, we are back with a vengeance. We discuss a cool recent article in JAVMA about bone infarcts, have a great double interview with dr. Karen Perry and dr. Susan Little about orthopedics and discuss how to remove a thyroid gland in a cat. So happy to be back!
