Abstract
Today, the busy clinician benefits from a philosophy of practice that brings together the best applicable evidence and the experiences of clinical work in an effort to provide the best care for individual patients. EBM provides a structured approach that recognizes the contributions of evidence and clinical experience. An EBM practice is efficient and effective in meeting the goal of assuring optimum care. The concepts of EBM make sense for veterinary medicine (even if there are limited numbers of randomized, blinded studies), and clinicians in all types of practice can apply them.
