SUMMARY:Webinar: Osteoarthritis from a Surgical Perspective
DESCRIPTION:In the prime of their days\, when the dance of youth fades to the arthritic whispers of time\, we turn to the delicate art of surgery to restore grace to our canine companions. The surgeon\, like a masterful artist\, wields their tools with precision and compassion\, seeking to alleviate the burdens of pain. \nWith the gentle touch of arthroscopy\, a window is opened into the joint’s secret world\, where fragments of discord are delicately removed\, allowing the symphony of movement to play once more. In the ballet of bones\, osteotomy repositions the players\, realigning the choreography to ease the strains of life’s wear and tear. \nFor those whose joints have become unyielding prisons of pain\, joint replacement offers a rebirth\, where prosthetic marvels bestow newfound freedom and joy. When even this is not enough\, arthrodesis steps in\, sacrificing motion for the solace of pain’s release\, ensuring a life of comfort over suffering. \nAnd in the smallest of our friends\, excisional arthroplasty gently reshapes the future\, creating a false joint that\, though unconventional\, gifts them a life unchained from the relentless grip of discomfort. \nEach surgical stroke\, guided by knowledge and compassion\, paints a picture of hope and renewal. Through careful preoperative consideration and diligent postoperative care\, we shepherd our loyal friends back to the vibrant dance of life\, their steps once more light and free. \nAbout our speaker \nDr Peter Guy BSc\, BVSc\, MMedVet (Surg) \nSpecialist Surgeon \nAfter graduating from Onderstepoort in 2013\, Dr. Peter Guy commenced his career as a general practitioner at Panorama Veterinary Clinic in 2014. Driven by a profound passion for progressive learning in small animal surgery\, he has dedicated significant effort and time to learning and trying to better himself in both orthopaedic and soft tissue fields. In 2021\, he embarked on a rigorous surgical residency\, successfully completing it by the end of 2023. His dedication to these specialties is evident in his meticulous approach to surgical procedures and his commitment to advancing veterinary surgical techniques. Dr. Guy is now a qualified specialist in Small Animal Surgery. Beyond his professional pursuits\, he enjoys outdoor activities and long-distance running whenever his schedule allows. At home\, he shares his life with four dogs\, three cats\, and two children.

However\, to sustain and expand this program\, we need the support of all industries related to animal health. \nIn this webinar we will discuss:\n1. The dire state of veterinary services in South Africa.\n2. The critical pivotal role of veterinary services on the entire value chain.\n3. The mental health status of veterinarians\, and possible solutions.\n4. Successes since 2020 of the mentorship program.\n5. How industry can be involved in shaping the future of veterinary services. \nBy joining our webinar\, you’ll gain invaluable insights into the mentorship program’s impact\, uncover ways you can contribute\, and explore the benefits your business can reap by backing this vital initiative. \nDon’t miss out on this chance to be a driving force behind the future of veterinary care. \nRegister now and stand with us as we pave the way for brighter days ahead – for veterinarians\, para-veterinarians and the animal population of South Africa. \n\n\nGert Steyn\, Managing Director SAVA\nDr Paul van der Merwe\, President SAVA
