You have just told the client you have heard a heart murmur... Now what? Join us with Vetrinary Cardiology Specialist Dr. Fiona Meyers as she gives you the foundations to cardiac patient management. She will cover the most recent guidelines around staging and interventions including medications and nutrition.
Dr Fiona Meyers graduated as a veterinarian from the University of Queensland in 1996. After graduation, she worked in small animal practice in the United Kingdom and Australia for 2 years before undertaking a PhD at the University of Queensland. In 2001 she became a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (Small Animal Medicine), and worked as a small animal medicine clinician in the University of Queensland Veterinary Teaching Hospital.
