Rhonda Bell, CVPM, PCM-Digital, CDMP

For Rhonda Bell, discovering veterinary medicine as a career field was the perfect fit—but becoming a professional Certified Veterinary Practice Manager was the game changer! Rhonda loved working for over 15 years as a practice manager, but she left practice management to pursue her dream of combining her three loves, people, pets, and practice building, into a successful social media management and professional brand consulting business. She has a variety of clients in the veterinary space, with the majority being small animal practices looking to increase their online presence and engage with their clients on social media. Rhonda helps them identify their goals for themselves, their businesses, and their online audiences.

Canine Lymphoma: A Review from Diagnosis to Treatment

Lymphoma is still one of the most commonly diagnosed cancers in dogs and it’s important to move quickly once it’s been recognized. Dogs that are clinical have a worse prognosis than dogs that are clinically normal. There are a number of easy diagnostics that can be performed prior to referral to a specialist that can set a patient up for success. We will review common diagnostic tests and prognosis to help arm the general practitioner with the knowledge to work these patients up prior to referral and help counsel owners on the expectations and prognosis of their patients with lymphoma.
