THE OFFICIAL NEWSPAPER OF THE NAVC CONFERENCE 2017

LOOKING AHEAD TO 2018 WITH YOU IN MIND

Beginning next year, the NAVC Conference—as VMX—will settle into the OCCC’s South Concourse

Today, we say “farewell” to the final NAVC Conference and “see you next year” to all of the veterinary professionals, speakers, moderators, exhibitors, partners and sponsors who joined us this week for the unmatched continuing education that the NAVC is known for. We enjoyed spending time with old friends, working alongside long-time colleagues and meeting many new faces.
