Twin Cities MN echocardiogram clinic - April 22 - space available

[MeadowCat]

The Twin Cities Doberman club is hosting an echo clinic on April 22nd and we still have some slots available if anyone is interested in getting an echo done. The clinic is with Dr. Janet Olson, cardiologist, and the cost is $275/dog. Contact me if you would like a registration form or more information.

I sure wish I could but it's just not a good time for us. I know she's a top of the line cardiologist so it's well worth the money.

Jan, this is our second year doing one in April, so we'll be trying to do another next April, too (if you want to plan ahead). I'll have TWO dogs to test (eek...that's hard on the wallet!), and I know another club member that will probably have two or three), so it won't take a lot to hit our minimum number to hold the clinic. Maybe next year will work out for you!

I sure hope so since I've been wanting to do it for quite some time now. Exactly where is it located, or does the location change every year?

We've had two different locations, Jan - it sort of depends on where we can get a location at the lowest cost, so that we don't have to pass any extra cost on over and above what Dr. Olson charges for the echos. We STRONGLY believe in providing this opportunity at as low a price as we can, so the club is not charging anything "extra" - just exactly what it costs us per echo and then any fees we would have for the space. This year we were lucky enough to get free space! We're in Eden Prairie at Perpetual Motion Chiropractic (a great dog chiro). We'll see if that works again for next year.

BTW, I don't know if you are aware, but Doberman Rescue Minnesota has purchased a holter monitor and is making it available for rentals very inexpensively, too, if you need that service.

No I didn't know that but I'm very interested. Thanks for the info!

Wow, that is very cool.
