The Essentials: Just what you are looking for

Your patient in the next exam room has diabetes. Later today you'll see a patient with atopic dermatitis. Plus you know it's obese and serious problems are looming because this client balks on the topic of weight loss. And tomorrow's emergency visit may lead you to seek pointers on handling a patient you suspect has GDV. You've come to dvm360.com to determine what the best next steps are.

You start by typing “diabetes” in the search, and, voila, almost 800 results. You don't have time to sort through all those results for what you need. So we've done it for you.

Meet The Essentials.

Each Essential covers the elements of what you are looking for-diagnostic steps, treatment plan guidance and the latest updates, plus resources to share with your entire veterinary team and your clients. It's an essential package on a specific condition, curated by the Veterinary Medicine content team.

I think it's safe to say that we've been publishing veterinary clinical content for longer than you've been on the planet. Veterinary Medicine was first published in 1905. Of course we won't present an article to you from back then-things have changed a bit. But dvm360.com has extensive depth and breadth of content, and The Essentials curation will be continual. The update section will change with new developments or insights. And we'll add more conditions so you'll be fully armed to help that patient waiting for you in the next room, no matter what the problem is. We have just what you are looking for, and we're helping you find it.
