This case-based session will highlight compelling examples where routine “wellness testing” in clinically normal pets revealed unexpected and clinically significant disease. Attendees will gain insights into the diagnostic value of preventive laboratory screening, supported by current evidence and expert-driven guidelines. Practical strategies and communication tools will also be shared to help veterinary teams integrate wellness testing into preventive care programs and confidently manage unexpected results. Because with preventive care diagnostics, you’ll never know unless you look.

We all know the ‘why?’ of preventive care- vaccination, screening, wellness laboratory assessment, preventives, and more….BUT, how do vet teams obtain compliance when communicating recommendations? And…is it possible to practise great medicine PLUS achieve business success- and feel good about both? What about pet-owner spectrum of care needs & contextualized diagnostics? Join two successful practitioners, expert communicators, and companion animal parasite council (CAPC) board members, as they share pearls from practise and provide practical tips on preventive care implementation that actually work.
