Every day is a school day! Dr Hayley, Dr AJ, and nurse Bec had a great time learning at the Bain Fallon conference last week, the biggest week of equine veterinary continuing education in the Southern Hemisphere! With separate streams for vets and nurses there were plenty of lectures and practical sessions - they look forward to sharing their knowledge with the team, and of course our equine patients.

Thank you to the Equine Veterinarians Association branch of the Australian Veterinary Association for hosting a wonderful event, and to Interpath 4cyte for sponsoring Dr Hayley through their 'Young Members' scholarship for commitment to the equine veterinary profession.
