Editorial Reviews
Review
The book 'gives a very basic rundown of the clinical signs, diagnosis and treatment of a whole range of conditions...all in a compact volume of 783 pages. It provides a very basic veterinary background for the work that nurses are carrying out on a day-to-day basis, giving them a greater understanding of the clinical decision making that goes on behind the cases that they manage.'

5.0 out of 5 stars
Very Informative and Useful,
By Tab LVT (Michigan) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Common Diseases of Companion Animals, 1e (Paperback)
This book was assigned for my Small Animal Diseases class in the vet tech program and it was very helpful. It lists clinical signs, keys to diagnosis, treatments, and client information tips for a variety of diseases of the dog and cat. There are also "Tech Alerts" in bold print that highlight important things to remember about a disease or treatment. The book is easy to read and understand, but not too basic or elementary.
