What Is A Specialist?
Within the past two decades, new knowledge, instrumentation, and techniques in veterinary medicine have made it possible for the specialist to recieve advanced training in his or her particular field of intrest. The specialist, as an extension of the primary care veterinarian, is now available to help provide optimal and the most advanced patient care.
