Resources to help improve osteoarthritis management

At Boehringer Ingelheim Vetmedica, Inc., we recognize that veterinarians are the experts when it comes to keeping horses healthy. We support and offer resources to help educate horse owners and veterinarians about the current prevention and treatment of osteoarthritis as part of our overall commitment to joint health management.

We sponsor educational seminars for both horse owners and veterinarians, working in collaboration with David Frisbie, DVM, PhD, Diplomate ACVS. Among his influential roles, Dr. Frisbie is associate professor of equine surgery at Colorado State University, senior scientist at the university's Equine Orthopaedic Research Center, and partner in Equine Sports Medicine of Pilot Point, Texas. Dr. Frisbie has focused the last 15 years of his research/clinical practice on diagnostics and therapeutics for joint disease.
