Testimonials

"As a pre-vet student that is majoring on Biomedical Sciences (a major focused on human medicine) I have to look for resources outside of my classes to have a better performance when doing clinical work.

Even though the knowledge that I've learned through human medicine related classes has helped me understand medical cases better, there are some subjects (such as medical math) that are not on my bachelor's degree. This is why I chose to make an investment on this book by Vetpocket “Medical Mathematics for Veterinary Professionals + Tables”.

This book has helped me understand medical math (the people that know me, know that I suck at math), has improved my skills and has made it easier to give fluid therapy and to calculate the right dose of medication for each patient at the clinic. I 10/10 recommend this book, for pre-vets that want to learn about medical math and how to apply it in the field."

Gabriela Medina, Pre-Vet

"Mathematics for Veterinary Professionals has been a wonderful resource for me to better treat my patients. I use the teachings in this book almost every day. I would recommend this book for any veterinary professional who is in school or who has been in practice for decades."

- Dr. Rachel L., DVM, Colorado, US

"I already received the book which is really amazing! I want to thank you for all your efforts, time and experience spent in it. You really did something remarkable in our field."

Veterinary Surgeon @ Harmony Vet Clinic

"Before I started using Vetpocket's Medical Math book, I was very insecure with calculating drug dosages, CRIs, solutions, etc and would spend a lot of precious time calculating over and over again, sometimes asking colleagues to double check me. Now that I have this golden book, I no longer have this problem, especially with calculating CRI's!

The author does a great job providing in depth explanations so that you understand what you're doing as opposed to just memorizing formulas. Bonus points for the plethora of practice questions!"
