Abstract
Within the busy veterinary practice, the thought of making change can seem overwhelming. The marginal gains theory is concerned with small incremental changes which, when added together, make a significant improvement. In this article we explore the application of marginal gains in the veterinary world. By focusing on how we can make small, consistent improvements in practice, change is not only possible, but practical too.
