The Vet Blast Podcast presented by dvm360

Christian Capobianco, DVM, CertAqV, CVA, is a 2023 graduate of North Carolina State University's College of Veterinary Medicine. Following graduation, he pursued a zoological, small, and large animal medicine and surgery rotating internship at the University of Florida (UF). He loved living in the swamp so much that he stuck around and is currently completing a zoological medicine residency program at UF. Throughout his training, he has expanded upon his knowledge of eastern medicine and aquatic animal medicine by becoming a certified veterinary acupuncturist (CVA) and certified aquatic veterinarian (CertAqV). He has authored several peer reviewed journal articles and case reports with his research interests including integrative medicine and emergency / critical care of zoologic species. Outside of veterinary medicine, he enjoys running, paddle boarding, scuba diving, and traveling to new places that have unique wildlife.
