Smiths Medical is proud to announce its support of the new Oquendo Center for Clinical Education in Las Vegas, which had its grand opening February 16. As a Founding Patron Sponsor for veterinary equipment, the center’s 14-station surgical suite is equipped exclusively with SurgiVet® monitoring and anesthesia systems including CDS 9000 Small Animal Anesthesia Machines, Advisor® Vital Signs Monitors, and Equator® Convective Warming Systems.

This 66,000 square foot state-of-the-art educational facility was conceived and constructed by the Western Veterinary Conference (WVC) as an institution dedicated to the traditional, proven, hands-on method of instruction. Its ever expanding curriculum emphasizes clinical techniques for nearly all animal species. Programs are designed principally for practicing veterinarians, with some modules scheduled for veterinary technicians, hospital managers, and other allied health professionals. World class instruction and a low participant-to-faculty ratio ensure sensibly paced and extremely focused learning. The SurgiVet® team recognized the value of this outstanding venue and has made a five year commitment as Founding Patron Sponsor.
