Clinician's Brief: The Podcast

Welcome to the Veterinary Breakroom! Join Alyssa Watson, DVM, and Beth Molleson, DVM, as they discuss pressing issues impacting the veterinary profession. Corporate consolidators are offering associates equity in veterinary practices at an increasing rate, and the pitch can sound pretty compelling. But, is a minority stake actually the partnership it's made out to be? Tune in as Dr. Alyssa and Dr. Beth react to a recent VIN News Service article on the trend, consider what the fine print can mean for career mobility, and reflect on the gap between feeling like an owner and actually being one.

In this episode, host Alyssa Watson, DVM, is joined by Linda E. Luther, DVM, MVSc, DACVIM (SAIM), to discuss her recent Clinician’s Brief article, “Manipulation of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System.” Dr. Luther delves into proteinuria, hypertension, heart disease, and the often overlooked hyperaldosteronism as conditions that feature chronic RAAS activation. She explains how each of our therapeutic options—ACE inhibitors, angiotensin II receptor blockers (ARB), spironolactone—are best put to use.

As our understanding of canine osteoarthritis deepens and treatment options continue to expand, there's never been a better opportunity to refine how we approach this disease in practice. In this episode of the Partner Podcast, Dr. Beth invites Dr. Monica Tarantino to explore what's actually happening in the arthritic joint, why inflammation deserves its own place in the treatment conversation, and how she navigates anti-inflammatory options in her senior patients.
