Speaking Engagements

I have also done a fair amount of public speaking over the years. Early on, it was at venues such as the Whole Life Expo in San Francisco, and many Annual Conferences of the AHVMA. I addressed, for instance, the Ontario Veterinary College in Guelph, and the Annual Meeting of Affiliated Study Groups of the NCH. In recent years, for the reasons stated above, I have concentrated on the Annual Conferences of the AVH, giving presentations in Charlottesville, Virginia, Washington, DC, and Monterey, California. In April, 2001 I gave a post-conference workshop in veterinary homeopathy at the Annual Conference of the NCH in Burlington, MA.

Giving talks like these is usually quite fun. With a presentation of 90 minutes to 3 hours, I can pick a topic and do something interesting, informative, even enlightening. Although it can entail a considerable amount of preparation, it is basically a fun little project. A much greater challenge, though, is assembling a roomful of knowledgeable and relatively experienced veterinary homeopaths and teaching for three days.
