Veterinary Clinical Podcasts

Welcome to the RVC veterinary clinical podcast. In these shows, Dominic Barfield, with the technical help of Brian Cox talks to a variety of different faculty/specialists/clinicians from the RVC about clinical relevant material to everyone in practice, if you are just about to start your veterinary career or you are a seasoned professional we aim to provide something for everyone. Whether you’re listening whilst you are cooking dinner, driving home, walking the dog or even at the gym, we want to give you some practical tips and advice that you won’t necessarily find in the text books or journal articles that we hope makes a difference to your patients.

accessible and engaging

I’m a vet student and I love listening to this podcast while I work. The topics covered are interesting and you don’t need a vet education to understand what is being discussed. Always excited for new episodes!
frijol141998

Stunning

Best podcast ever, I’m keen for the next episode, keep it up gays .

Life long learning

Thank you for the relevant information on disease processes.
kanajoelle

Engaging and Insightful

Really enjoy these podcasts on my walks. The host is great at asking questions and love all the topics and guests they have on. Hi from California!!
Kuggin

Great

I love these podcasts. They are very informative and easy to digest on the run!
Daidog92

RCVS Podcasts

I love these podcasts. They are so informative and better than any lecture as you can rewind and listen again if necessary. It’s great to get current clinical gold standards off the experts without easing a ton of journals. What’s not to love?!
Ralph Pope, DVM

Review

Excellent, excellent presentations. Sometimes it seems like there are only a few points made in a podcast-versus the sheer amount of information one can gather with tapes of conferences, for example. I suppose that is the nature of the beast, but do wish information was presented more quickly to justify the time involved. The speakers are outstanding and this service is much appreciated.

Excellent source of info

Wether it’s refreshing my memory or learning new things, this podcast delivers every time. Great range of topics, great guests. Albane Fauron, BVetMed
Shawn DVM

Very Practical

I’m listening to this podcast to prepare for the ABVP board examination. I find the topics and information to be very practical with just enough detail so as not to be overwhelmed. My only criticism is I wish there were more!
VeroPanda

Thank you!

I’ve been listening to this (and previously the ECC podcasts) for some time now. Without exaggeration, they’ve helped me pass my ECFVG (an exam for those who graduated from non-AVMA accredited schools) and the NAVLE, and continue to make me a better vet with every new episode. All your hard work is *very* much appreciated, happy holidays!
DenitzaPizza

Great information!

I'm a senior veterinary student at Ohio State, and I love listening to these podcasts. If I don't have a lot of time to prepare for a case for the following day, I'll put these on as a refresher while walking my dog and feel much more prepared when discussing it with the clinician the next day. Thank you!
Shobiedoobie

Love these podcasts!

Im a senior veterinary student at Ohio State University. I really love listening to your podcasts while I am doing chores around the house. It’s a way for me to be submerged in the veterinary field as much as possible. They are amazing and informative and easy to listen to. Thank you!
Dr. Di Giuseppi

Great podcast

I’m a first year vet and these podcasts are awesome, great in depth detail and a great refresher on certain topics that aren’t seen that often in practice.

I’m a recent vet school grad that just started my internship at a private practice in Pennsylvania in the US. I LOVE the RVC veterinary clinical podcast. I have a 45 minute commute to and from work each day and these are the perfect length and level of detail that I feel like I’m really learning something each day and being productive during my drive. There have also already been several instances where something has come up in the internship that I just reviewed during my morning drive with you. Thank you for doing this! Love the variety of topics also. Keep it up!
JThompsVT

Great!

I’m currently an undergraduate student who is a registered veterinary technician in the U.S. wanting to attend veterinary college. I love listening to your pod casts. It helps with the drive to school everyday!

Cobwebs

Just found this podcast and love to listen to these whenever I can. Good for cleaning out the cobwebs and giving updated clinical information, as I get back to vet practice post children!
Ally Kessler

Great podcast

I’m a third year veterinary student and this podcast is so helpful. I live in Los Angeles and I have long commute times, so I have listened to almost every episode and it has contributed so much to my learning. The episodes go over all the important things to know for a variety of diseases and other topics, and I feel much more confident approaching cases after listening to so many of these. Thank you so much for making these episodes and contributing to my education! I’m always looking forward to the next one!
TWootton

Thank you so much!

First year graduate from Cornell CVM that entered private practice in a busy clinical setting. Just wanted to say I am hugely grateful for your succinct, yet casual discussions about a wide variety of topics in veterinary medicine. As an avid podcast listener, you offer me a fantastic way to review various common veterinary ailments, current treatment recommendations from specialists and how to approach discussions with owners. Thanks to Dr. Barfield and the rest of the RVC contributors!

Makes my commute fly by

I am a practitioner in Vermont in northeast US. These podcasts are great for the 45 minute drive between clinics. The content is excellent and makes the travel though the ice and snow productive. Thank you!!
Sugar234

Excellent!

I love this podcast. I'm a veterinary assistant with vet school aspirations and these are awesome to keep me engaged, and thinking on cases I get to help with throughout the day. I thorougly enjoy getting to enhance my growing repetoir of knowledge with this series. It's great for reenforcing some things I learn at work, and introduce me to new concepts or case studies.
Jholtzc

Best podcast out there if you are a veterinarian

Listen and learn. It’s that easy. Great job.
Valnstar

Great Info

Thank you for discussing very important topics.
CT Doc

Excellent podcast

I have a mobile diagnostic imaging referral practice and recently discovered your podcast. I have found it to be an excellent way to be kept current on a variety of medical subjects while traveling. Thanks for making it available.
roverlaine

Awesome

I listen on my way to work. Have been practicing for 18 years and it is great to get latest new trends and recommendations for testing and treating long standing diseases.
Arman276

Awesome

I like listening to these for the sake of easing myself into the vet world a bit more before I start vet school in a month.
okayheather

Quite a Good One

I’m a vet tech out of the US and I absolutely love this podcast. I’ve been listening since Shailen hosted, and now with Dom on board I felt I should write a review (sorry I took so long!!) This podcast is invaluable to me as a tech. I learn so much from each podcast- the material is presented in a way that is informative and accessible to the listener, Dom and his guests are engaging and fun to listen to, and the topics that are covered are diverse and from all aspects of vet med (not even exclusively cats and dogs). My only complaint is they aren’t released frequently enough, though who has the time in this field anyway. ;) Keep up the excellent work!!
PopcornSally

Timely topics, well-structured show

I'm a veteran veterinarian of 18 years. This podcast has been fun to listen to for refreshers on topics like oncological diagnostics. There are also times that I've learned new things like how others are using newer anti-seizure medications in dogs. Most of the info presented is similar to how I've learned in the US, but vets in the UK do some things slightly differently. It's nice to have a new perspective. Overall, I think the format of the shows is perfect-- not too long nor too short. The guests seem knowledgeable and prepared and the host asks the questions I'd like to ask myself. Fun and useful show! Wish I could get some continuing education credits for listening!
dewittdvm

Excellent continuing education

The shows are incredibly informative and relevant. It’s great to be able to revisit them and put the information into practice. Almost like being back in school without the exams. It is especially nice to hear a different perspective on some treatments that may not be as available in the United States.
CPMP17

Excellent Podcast!

Thank you for the work and effort you put into your podcast. I am a small animal general practitioner in the U.S. and I find your podcasts to be immensely helpful. The topics you choose are often commonly seen diseases in general practice and I love hearing what specialists have to say about best treatments and approaches to these diseases. Coverage of each topic is very thorough and well thought out. I appreciate your time in making this podcast and frequently recommend it to others. Thanks!
New Mexico Gal

Great podcasts!!

As a Veterinary pathologist I find these podcasts to be very helpful in providing me with critical clinical information/review which enhances my ability to provide optimal pathology interpretations.
Likealocket

Superb!

First of all, Dominic’s voice is incredible, it makes listening so much more entertaining for an American like me. Second of all, the breadth and depth of knowledge presented on a regular basis is top notch of all veterinary podcasts. They manage to present complex information while not assuming the listener is already proficient, which is just perfect. I’m applying to veterinary school currently and using these podcasts as some early extra study material and maybe interview fodder! :)

Good work RVC. These podcast have really helped me stay sharp. I love how you have specalist talking about things I actually encounter as a GP. Also, I have had a go at a few other vet podcast, but I do not find their information as reliable or relivant as yours. I am a Massey grad practicing in the USA and still find these right on point. Cheers.

Excellent show

Such great podcasts. Always interesting subjects and guests. Thank you for producing these!
Deeeevv

Awesome!

I am a 2nd year veterinary student at Texas A&M. These podcast's provide clinical relavence to many of the concepts we cover in lecture. Keep them coming!
Wes Fan

Informative and Entertaining!

This podcast offers a variety of topics which always keeps in interesting! I am a veterinary nurse who listens to this podcast to learn so it's helpful when they outline the problem/issue and start from the beginning (assuming not everyone listening is a doctor). Each episode is so long that I feel like I'm sitting in a lecture but they're detailed enough that I'm able to take notes and discuss questions with doctors I work with. I look forward to every episode! Keep up the good work!
RCVTUC

Great Podcast

Love that a range of topics are covered. I've learned a lot of new information and been able to refresh on topics as well!
JPMDVM

Well done

Great refresher "courses". Highly recommended!
Skeetskeet561

Perfect

I am a 3rd year vet student and really enjoy listening to these podcasts. I am often driving long distances and I crush podcasts on my drive. In a field where learning never ends, these are such a gem to listen to. Thanks for all that you guys do.
Karalus

So good!

As a veterinarian working in USA I really enjoy listening to this to get a refresher on topics where I have forgotten things from vet school. It has helped me a lot! Especially after starting out in large animal practice and then moving to small animals. Keep up the good work!
wolfielovesmuffins

Love It!!!!

I want to be a vet when I grow up and this is super interesting. I take whatever chance I can to learn about Veterinary Medicine and this is amazing.
MKRVC

Excellent study aid

In the middle of 4th year exams and this is an excellent addition to my studies. Thank you RVC.
brook_e_sia

Excellent for vet students and curious laypeople alike!

Thank you so, so much for this wonderful podcast. I am a second year veterinary student and this podcast has been a dream to listen to! The style of interview utilized by Dr. Jasani is marvellous! He approaches his guests and each topic with such reverance and humility and the questions he asks are akin to those that a student would ask and so it makes the podcast so wonderful and easy to listen to. Thank you for making sure to define terms and to address the basics before diving into more complicated material. This is the type of podcast that can be enjoyed by anyone with a curiosity for this material thanks to Dr. Jasani wonderful approach to learning.
broca

Fantastic host and evidence based episodes!

This podcast was a true pleasure to listen to. Although I work in Costa Rica, the information always felt very relevant to daily practice. Dr. Jasani is fun and informative, and often had fantastic guests on the podcast. The episodes were always interesting, relevant, and evidence-based. One of my favorite veterinary podcasts!
Pearl Engler

4 thumbs up

What a fantastic podcast. I'm currently in vet school in Ireland and Its so nice to be able to listen to these podcasts and take a break from being hunched over textbooks and staring at computer screens! Also, I seem to really retain what I learn from these. I just wish there were so, so many more! Honestly though, I can't thank u enough. You are providing a truly exceptional educational tool.

Download issue

Hello I’m trying to download all the episodes so I can listen to what I’m currently revising, but some episodes won’t download on my phone or my computer. Please help?
Fraedyhhuu

Fun and informative

I've been an aspiring veterinarian and it is fascinating to listen to the speaker and his guests. They discuss a wide variety of topics concerning veterinary medicine and the dialogue is always intriguing and poignant. The podcast is very well produced and I'm really glad to have found out about it! Hope you keep making more!
Tk99993

Excellent supplemental information

These podcasts are excellent resources for students and vets in practice
Brownlemur

These are wonderful

Thank you for making this podcast. As a veterinary student, it helps to hear clinicians discuss these topics and make them more accessible. You keep making them, we’ll keep listening!
