“This is a fantastic course! Very in depth, with many practical examples and suggestions. I believe that Dr. Victoria Lukasik's course has raised the level of safety and patient care for all of my patients' anesthetics. By far has had the most impact on my practice regarding anesthesia.

“The Anesthesia course was a great refresher for me! It gave me a lot of confidence in approaching my cases thanks to my improvement of knowledge. I feel way less stressed when things don't go as planned and when complications occur, because I always feel like I know how to handle them the best way possible.
As always – thanks for everything you and your team do to support us and to give us the knowledge and confidence we need to be and become better vets.”

“The anesthesia course has been a great eye-opening experience. I now use multimodal approach continuous rate infusions and monitoring to the next level. I'm able to get through the highs and lows of anesthesia. This course has been a great benefit and I often me watch it to pick up pointers that I might have missed or refresh my memory. Thank you Brett for bringing this course do you like curriculum.”

“The Anesthesia Safety course helped me develop better protocols for induction, maintenance, and recovery for our pets for the most common procedure we do.”

“I really enjoyed this course and would love to see more! Because of the course, I have completely revised the premedication and induction protocol at our hospital. For example, we have started implementing pre-medicating at home with gabapentin, trazodone and cerenia which has meant better in hospital pre-med response, lower isoflurane requirements, and shorter, nausea free, recoveries!”

“The Anesthesia Safety for Veterinary Dentistry is an excellent course. It provides a wealth of knowledge on how to approach anesthesia for these long procedures in any and all types of patients we might encounter – from the obese patients to the geriatric ones. It confirmed many of the measures we already had in place but provided additional knowledge to enhance our skill set and standard of care. The numerous case studies demonstrated the theory in a relevant and hands-on fashion. I feel much more confident putting geriatric patients or those with complex case management issues under anesthesia after completing this course.
This course is a “MUST HAVE” for any and all who are performing veterinary dentistry!
Thank you Dr. Beckman and Dr. Lukasik!”

“I have to tell you that the anesthesia course that I took was BY FAR one of my favorite CEs of my career. I thought my anesthesia protocol was ok because that is what I had always used. The course was eye-opening as far as understanding and implicating the safety and pain management of my patients. My entire team was afraid when I told them we were going to change the entire way we handled anesthesia – but EVERYONE now would NEVER go back to how we used to use it.
I feel so much more confident in the safety of my patients, in the superior pain control they receive, and their recovery from anesthesia. I am so proud to be able to practice a more advanced anesthesia protocol – thanks to this course. I would recommend it to new grads all the way to seasoned practioners!”
