What educators are saying:

"I wish all third year students could take the Spectrum of Care course before starting clinical rotations. It would give them a much better understanding on how to provide care for all our patients."

~ Rachael Kreisler, V.M.D., M.S.C.E., DACVPM (Epidemiology)
Associate Professor, Shelter Medicine
Midwestern University

"We asked our fourth-year Community Medicine rotation students to take the Spectrum of Care course. They loved the 'good medicine checklist' as a guide for appointments and thinking through a plan. Even calling it 'good medicine' was valuable for their learning about SoC."

~ Lauren Berstein, MVB, MPH, DACVPM
Assistant Professor, Community Medicine, Veterinary Clinical Sciences
University of Minnesota College of Veterinary Medicine

"We included the new Open Door Spectrum of Care online course modules in our professional skills curriculum at U.C. Davis this spring and this was very well received by our students, who are just beginning their year-four clinical rotations. We feel knowledge of this material is important in equipping students for success as they begin working with clients and patients. This is a very well-designed program, and the online format worked flawlessly. We are grateful to have access to this!"

~ Jim Clark, DVM, MBA
    Health Science Clinical Professor
