Ever wanted to know a little more about PRP for OA management in veterinary patients?  Look no further than this concise introduction from one of the UK’s leading experts in regenerative medicine, Greg McGarrell.

This CPD content is suitable for: veterinary surgeons, veterinary nurses, veterinary physiotherapists, other professionals involved in osteoarthritis care.

VOA is pleased to release our very first podcast to a wider audience.  Originally this was only available to VOA members.  By popular request it is now accessible by all those interested in veterinary osteoarthritis worldwide. 

In this two-part conversation with Russell Chandler, recorded during the pandemic lockdown, Greg McGarrell describes what PRP is and how and when to use it in practice.  There is mention made of some of the relevant science underpinning its use, though above all this is a practical discussion in which there are many implementable take-aways.  

Thanks to everyone at VOA who made this podcast possible, including Melanie Arnold and Kizzy Bass.  We also acknowledge the generous sponsorship from Nupsala MSK Clinic.
