The AO VET Equine Case Challenge is live on myAO. 🐎

For equine vet professionals looking to sharpen their clinical edge - this is worth your attention.

Here's how it works:
• A faculty member shares a real equine case in week 1
• You work through your clinical reasoning
• Faculty then reveal their full diagnostic and treatment strategy in week 2
• You compare, discuss, and learn - directly with the surgeons involved

What makes this different is the access. You can ask questions, and have real conversations with world-class specialists in equine orthopedic surgery. That kind of direct dialogue is rare.

Whether you're an experienced equine surgeon or building your expertise, the group is designed to stretch your thinking and connect you with a global community of professionals who take equine medicine as seriously as you do.
