Last months meeting was
excellent and I want to thank
Dr. Phillip Treuil for taking time and
discussing radiation with us. That topic is
always changing and becoming more a
part of our practices on a daily basis so it
was nice to get the latest information.
This month we are going to hear from
Angie Faver PT on animal rehabilitation.
Angie runs North Texas Animal
Rehabilitation and is a Physical Therapist
that received training for animal
rehabilitation from the University of
Te n n e s s e e
c a n i n e
rehabilitation
program. In
addition Dr.
Ryan Paddock
DVM from
Hill's will also
be speaking
a b o u t
osteoarthritis. These topics also are
progressing rapidly in both the veterinary
and human world so finding out the latest
trends will be very helpful. I look forward
to another great turn out .
