some of our vets

Probably the first and only trainee programme for veterinarians in German small animal medicine starts this August at doc4pets.

It is now possible to start training as a specialist veterinarian for small animals and pets at the same time as being trained in business administration and law, so that you can later take over your own practice as a manager and potential partner.

While starting a career as a trainee has established itself as an attractive alternative for potential managers in the commercial and engineering sectors, a comparable concept for veterinarians does not yet exist. FTÄ Doreen Succow on the concept: "We have developed an ATF-recognised training concept for our future managers based on the training requirements for veterinarians of the LTK Baden-Württemberg. And Co-CEO Dipl.-Ök. Sven Jan Arndt, LL.M. adds: "In addition to medical know-how, our trainees are also given the business management tools to run their own practice. From the practice for the practice.

Such a trainee programme offers many advantages - in addition to insights into different specialist areas and branches, intensive and structured support is provided by FTÄ Succow, Head of Training/Best Practice, who has been explicitly delegated for this purpose. In this way, a network of future managers is created in the group, who remain in lively professional exchange - synergies at their best.

In addition, a 4-day week in full-time, no 24-hour services, bonus programmes based on BPT also allow sufficient freedom for a good work-life balance.

About us:

doc4pets GmbH is an owner-managed group of five small animal practices in the southwest of Germany. With its innovative and disruptive approach to veterinary succession, it offers the veterinarian willing to hand over a practice succession with qualified senior doctors from the doc4pets family. The latter, in turn, have the opportunity to participate in the acquired practice and later take over the majority. The focus is on the idea of the highly qualified freelancer, who is supported by the group in purchasing as well as marketing, accounting, etc.. This allows him to concentrate fully on his patients.

Due to continuous growth, doc4pets is always looking for veterinarians in small animal medicine who want to develop further in the future as an expert in the small animal centre or as a successor to a veterinary practice. You can find out more about the concept at: https://www.doc4pets.de/trainee

Advanced training course series with ATF recognition starts 1024 768Sven Jan Arndt

We are pleased to offer our first ATF-recognised training series. This is a first compact block, which will be offered every Tuesday evening from 03.08.2021 under the direction of Ms Doreen Succow, a specialist veterinarian.

More information with a comprehensive course description can be found at: Training with ATF

This first ATF course runs from 03.08.2021 to 18.01.2022 and its content is based on the further training to become a specialist veterinarian for small and domestic animals of the LTK Baden-Württemberg. The course can only be booked as a whole and offers 61 ATF hours of recognition upon successful participation (22 of the 25 dates must be attended for recognition).

Of course, it is suitable for both beginning assistants and advanced veterinarians.

When designing this ATF training, it was important to Ms. FTÄ Succow to ensure both a high theoretical level and practical implementation.

This is a face-to-face event that will take place at the Kleintierzentrum Arndt, Bergwaldstr. 30, 76227 Karlsruhe. Snacks and drinks will be provided.

Our in-house doc4pets academy is going from strength to strength. Today, on Mother ' s Day Sunday, we were able to win Doreen Succow as a speaker on the topic: Analysis & Interpretation of X-rays. Ms Succow completed her specialist veterinary training at the Clinic for Small Animals at the University of Leipzig and then held various exciting practical positions at home and abroad. Among other things, she was most recently clinic manager in Dubai in the NASCV.

P.S.: all participants were vaccinated at least once or tested themselves immediately before the event.

Today the dear Dr. Wölfel from the University of Munich was back in the house. Today our initial assistants had the special pleasure of further training.

The next training courses in the field of surgery are also already planned for the beginning of February. We are pleased that these in-house training courses of the doc4pets academy, which are adapted to the respective level of knowledge, enable largely individual training with highly qualified external instructors.

This was already the 4th in-house course of the doc4pets academy this year. And of course, all of this for the best of your darlings.

Dr. Michael Koch is again present at the doc4pets academy today - this group is currently working on the topics of surgical treatment of laryngeal paralysis and access to the salivary gland.

doc4pets academy - Advantage:

As you can see, our extremely small groups allow for very intensive and individual learning. This, combined with our own instruments, brings the best possible learning results.

In December the ultrasound courses will continue.

doc4pets has decided to offer essential training courses with excellent lecturers in our own practices. This is mainly for the following reasons:

  • logistically easier to handle for all employees (no overnight stays or long journeys)
  • learning in familiar surroundings with existing material
  • smaller learning groups, which also work together later
  • acute topic loss - focused on the wishes of our veterinarians

Today, Dr. Michael Koch started with our surgeons in the area of osteosynthesis (bone surgery):

Dr. Michael Koch with his protégés

Dr. Michael Koch is a recognized and well-known surgeon, who is known from many prestigious continuing education events.

We at doc4pets want to expand this very practice-oriented series of training courses with experts from other departments.

In addition, our veterinarians have the possibility to Vetinaries to attend continuously also webinars / online courses with ATF hours.

Improve International is another training partner where senior physicians and potential managers are given the opportunity to obtain an internationally recognized degree as e.g. general practitioner.

This, in combination with our in-house mentoring, is intended to ensure not only on-the-job learning but also the professional advancement of each individual member of our veterinary profession in his or her field of interest in the long term, which ultimately also benefits our young patients.

Experienced speakers who would like to visit us in Karlsruhe are welcome to contact Mr. Sven Jan Arndt.
