Communicating ideas in veterinary medicine is a fundamental part of building a career as a clinician and adding onto an established foundation of veterinary research. The purpose of this book is to increase efficiency and effectiveness in writing professional documents, e.g. writing a concise yet thorough discharge statement to avoid repeated client call-backs to clarify medical recommendations. The book also aims to improve the reader's confidence in writing skills through guided and comprehensive practice exercises. Useful for both veterinary students and practising vets, Writing Skills for Veterinarians addresses how to develop and hone veterinary medical and scientific writing techniques. The basics of veterinary writing and why it matters are covered before concentrating on specific written models expected of vets - creating medical documents, such as SOAP notes, client and colleague communications, case reports, journal articles and original research papers. The resource-bank of additional exercises allows the reader to self-test for knowledge and comprehension.
