Its just about that time again. Time to roll up your sleeves, put on your thinking caps and get down to the intense, invigorating and hands-on learning that happens every year at the NAVC Institute. There’s a reason so many of your peers love this veterinary training course. The multi-day, in-residence approach allows you to focus your full attention on developing the critical skills and techniques you need right now. Under the guidance of board-certified veterinary professionals, you’ll learn and perform procedures you can put into practice immediately. Because we keep the classes small, you’ll enjoy plenty of one-on-one interaction with your instructors and fellow classmates. And in many cases, you get to reconnect and learn alongside colleagues you haven’t seen all year. In the words of one loyal attendee, the NAVC Institute is “like summer camp for veterinary professionals!”
And at this summer camp, the skills you learn will benefit your patients, your clients, your practice and your bottom line for seasons to come.
We hope you’ll join us for another year of “totalimmersion” education at the NAVC Institute.

Dr. Hulse graduated from Texas A&M in 1970 and completed his surgical training at Kansas State University in 1973. Commencing in 1970 and continuing until his appointment as a Professor of Orthopedic Surgery at Texas A&M University in 1984, Dr. Hulse served as a clinician in general practice and as a Staff Surgeon at Louisiana State University and Oklahoma State University. He successfully fulfilled the requirements for admission into the American College of Veterinary Surgeons in 1977. He is a recognized leader in veterinary orthopedics and is frequently invited to speak at National and International Veterinary conferences. He has developed techniques commonly used for treatment of bone and joint disorders in dogs and is a co-author of Small Animal Arthroscopy. His clinical research interests focus on minimally invasive surgery for joint disorders and for fracture treatment.
Additional Instructors:
Within a lecture/laboratory combined experience, you’ll receive in-depth exposure to common stifle problems you may experience in daily practice. You’ll learn and practice procedures in “saw bones” and cadavers, and we’ll stress exposure technique and identification of normal and pathologic intra-articular structures in lecture, with multiple practice opportunities. We’ll also address diagnosis and management of cranial cruciate ligament injury in large breeds of dogs as well as toy breeds of dogs and cats. Over two consecutive days, you’ll learn and perform techniques using novel knotless stabilization products positioned at the quasi isomteric femoral and tibial sites. In addition, you’ll have a chance to discuss and practice mechanical altering stabilization procedures, such as the CORA based leveling osteotomy that are useful in active large breeds of dogs as well as dogs with deranged stifles or excessive slope. You’ll follow techniques to achieve excellent visualization of the medial and lateral meniscus, identify and treat meniscal tears. A single day of lecture and practice is devoted to feline cases, focusing on surgical procedures for cranial cruciate ligament injury, patella luxation and deranged stifles. Finally, we’ll cover novel techniques for non-surgical management for osteoarthritis in the dog and cat. The end of each day is devoted to interactive Case Discussions, so we encourage you to bring cases from your practices.
Learning Objectives: • Understand surgical approaches to the canine and feline stifle. • Identify intra-articular structures and isometric points. • Apply novel knotless anchor systems.
Caleb Hudson, DVM
• Measure the tibial plateau slope and position of the CORA.
Sandra Hudson, BS, MBA, CCRP
• Perform a CORA-based leveling osteotomy.
