72 HCM in cats

Today Brian and I finally manage to lure Associate Professor David Connolly into the studio (we had to bribe with cake). David is a RVC stalwart, and a member of the Cardiology team. We cover approach to diagnosis and treatment with a bit of jumping around here and there.  Don't forget your stethoscope, and your ultrasound. And maybe your ECG. We hope that you enjoy.
