In this case-based podcast episode, Jessica (veterinary technician specialist) and Holly (veterinary clinical pathologist) discuss the case of Sammy, the Labrador, who is a survivor of Lyme nephritis but became acutely ill after a recent stem cell treatment. Jessica and Holly discuss his labwork, the nuances of his CBC, and the ancillary diagnostics performed to figure things out and get Sammy back to feeling his best. In discussing the case, the working relationship (and friendship) between this veterinarian and veterinary technician is highlighted, maximizing their impact in diagnostic testing and case management.
