Delegates stream between lectures and the exhibition
Just a few hours left of World Congress...

After four action-packed days at the ICC and NIA in Birmingham, the BSAVA WSAVA FECAVA World Congress is drawing to a close.

With just a few hours left of Congress, delegates can still attend the exhibition in the National Indoor Arena in between the final lectures of the extensive scientific programme.

Companies from every aspect of the veterinary industry are exhibiting at Congress, and if you fancy picking up information from the best services available, pop along to the exhibition before it closes at 2pm.

Meanwhile, veterinarians from all over the world have been benefitting from world-class CPD from some of the industry's top speakers.

BBC Radio 4 documentary addresses corporate fees

BBC Radio 4's File on 4 Investigates has released a documentary exploring how corporate-owned veterinary practices may be inflating bills to increase profit.

Released on 15 April, 'What's Happening To Your Vet Bills?' revealed the policies which many corporate groups have in place to increase their profits. This included targets and upgrades which veterinary teams are tasked with meeting on a regular basis.

It also features Anrich Vets, an independently-owned practice based in Wigan. Following the case of Staffordshire terrier Benjy, who is diagnosed with a tumour, the documentary shares how the team were able to offer contextualised care and advice to make the procedure as affordable as possible for his owners.

The documentary can be heard on demand on BBC iPlayer.
