https://www.vetsurgeon.org/f/non-clinical-questions/19975/any-stethoscope-recommendations After 10 years of abuse my Littman II is a rather horrible colour and I&#39;m looking for a replacement. I only do companion animal work so thinking about a Littman cardiology III - any recommendations? en-USTelligent Community 10https://www.vetsurgeon.org/thread/121076?ContentTypeID=1Fri, 19 Sep 2014 08:38:12 GMT146601cc-3922-4be7-9974-7e1d4e45a66b:15973373-877f-4b76-a156-300b05dd7d2aAnthony Dennison<p>[quote user=&quot;Iain McAllister&quot;]</p> <p>Ultrascopes are great listeners and come in funky designs - this is mine!</p> <p><a href="http://www.vetsurgeon.org/cfs-file.ashx/__key/CommunityServer.Discussions.Components.Files/6/0005.paw.jpg"><img src="https://www.vetsurgeon.org/resized-image.ashx/__size/550x0/__key/CommunityServer.Discussions.Components.Files/6/0005.paw.jpg" border="0" alt="" /></a></p> <div style="clear:both;"></div> <p>[/quote]</p> <p>Sorry, hate those stethoscopes.
