Join us Tuesday, Mar. 21, 2023 at 12pm for our webinar – Happy Pets and Happy Clients: Individualizing Care of the Atopic Dog with Dr. Valerie Fadok. In this webinar we will talk about the keys to success when managing atopic dermatitis. Keys to success are setting realistic expectations and providing our clients with quality information about the disease. We want to tailor our approach to each patient and client, while using the best medicine possible. We will introduce the concepts of anchor therapy, talk about how it relates to the multimodal approach, and emphasize the importance of regular rechecks to maximize success. We will use individual patients to illustrate how to design an effective long term management plan.
