👨🏻‍🏫 Daniel and Giorgio are attending the 42nd GMCAE Scientific Meeting in Córdoba, a multidisciplinary congress on exotic animal medicine and surgery focused on avian medicine and surgery.
📚 For these three days, the exotic animal group has invited Dr Scott Echols to lead coelomic surgery workshops and lectures on reproductive surgery, metabolic bone disease, kidney disease and diagnostic imaging. Tomorrow we will finish with a masterclass on beak surgery in parrots.
🙇‍♂️ Another weekend this year dedicated to continuing education so we can keep improving our specialist service.
