companion is the BSAVA monthly membership magazine which will be sent to members at the start of each month and is the perfect complement to JSAP.
companion includes content that is relevant to life in practice, instructive CPD articles, reports on the activities of colleagues and members, and articles on the issues facing the profession, as well as general Association news. The publication itself has many contributors, providing thought-provoking articles designed to test, educate and challenge.
