Veterinary Voices: Brian Goleman
Meet Brian Goleman, a certified veterinary technician and the creator of Brian’s Bandages, an educational movement to teach bandaging skills and wound care to veterinary professionals. He shares his passion and expertise for excellence in bandaging and wound care at national and regional veterinary conferences and workshops across the country and on his website and social media channels.
Goleman’s platform, Brian’s Bandages, highlights the love he has for his chosen profession. “I love the constant collaboration and learning within this profession,” he said. “Every case challenges us to problem-solve, and every patient reminds us why we do what we do.”
Goleman enjoys the challenge of helping veterinary professionals learn to love bandaging and feel empowered to use these skills to promote patient healing. “Teaching others how to master and personalize their bandaging techniques reminds me how much impact small details can make in our field,” he said.
