GPT for DVMs: Navigating LLMs with Confidence and Care
Large Language Models (LLMs) offer unprecedented opportunities to enhance clinical efficiency while maintaining high standards of patient care - however, like every clinical tool it must be used with intention and care. This webinar provides veterinary professionals with both theoretical foundations and practical implementation strategies for LLM integration in clinical practice. We'll broadly explore the technical underpinnings of LLMs, examine current research supporting their efficacy in medical settings, and address critical considerations for maintaining privacy, security, and accuracy in veterinary applications. Drawing from recent studies demonstrating significant improvements in clinical documentation efficiency and diagnostic accuracy, we'll explore how both general-purpose and veterinary-specific LLMs can augment clinical decision-making and administrative burden. The session includes guidance on prompt engineering techniques, strategies for preventing AI hallucinations, and specific workflows for integrating LLMs into daily practice. Through real-world examples and case studies, participants will learn to leverage LLMs for medical scribing, diagnostic support, and enhanced client communication. By the end of this webinar, attendees will have a comprehensive understanding of both the capabilities and limitations of LLMs in veterinary medicine, along with practical strategies for implementing these tools to improve practice efficiency, work-life balance, and patient care. While LLMs represent powerful tools for advancing veterinary practice, emphasis will be placed on viewing them as supplements to, rather than replacements for, clinical expertise.

About the presenter:
Dr. Zach Meyers, DVM, practices as a small animal general practitioner in a rural suburb of Madison, Wisconsin. Since graduating from the University of Wisconsin-Madison's School of Veterinary Medicine in 2022, he has been deeply committed to fostering the humane animal bond and enhancing access to veterinary care. His curiosity about the intersection of technology and veterinary medicine led him to explore innovative solutions to improve veterinary practice.
About the AVI Webinar Series: The purpose of the AVI Webinar Series is to provide a vendor-agnostic forum for education and networking. Join us to learn from academic, industry, and government organizations who are using information technology and data science to improve the lives of animals and veterinary healthcare teams.
