I teach small animal internal medicine. Small animal internal medicine is the discipline that requires the clinician to integrate knowledge of physiology, anatomy, biochemistry, pathology and pharmacology in a systematic approach. We teach the problem based approach whereby our students use their communication skills to get a clear picture of the owners primary concern(s) and then examines their patient to enhance this picture. With this information they will formulate a list of differentials and an diagnostic program (sometimes alongside an immediate therapeutic plan) in order to reach a diagnosis and institute a full treatment program. Internal medicine cases are often complex and challenging but this systematic approach prepares our students for those cases going into practice.
