Hands-on Soft-Tissue Surgery & Ultrasound Labs

Despite all the challenges facing hands-on medical training in 2020, WVC Academy at the Viticus Center looks forward to hosting soft tissue surgery and abdominal ultrasound courses.

When you invest in a veterinary CE course, you want that course to give you practical experience and new knowledge that you can immediately apply when you get home. The best way to boost your expertise and surgical skills is through hands-on practice, which is exactly what you get during a soft-tissue surgery or ultrasound course at the Viticus Center.
