MyFairLacy - I'm sure she'd be THRILLED to talk to a soon-to-be vet!

YorkieLuv - Yes, she mentions MVD and shunts on her site - if you click on the "specific illnesses" tab, there is more info there

Patti - she doesn't recommend prepared food; her choice is home cooked (she also supports raw in some cases) - she suggests, for ibd and even allergies in general (which are so related to ibd), whitefish like tilapia/cod/trout/sole - then adding salmon in (bc they need fat) after a couple weeks if they're doing well. (plus there is more to the entire recipe, but fish is the protein)

She has seen miracles..and I'm hoping for one. I paid $75 for the consult, and I feel it was very well spent!

Thanks for her website. I saved it for future reference. The vet school really encourages us to shadow vets and do internships and externships during summer and our 4th year (which seems so long away right now LOL). I would love to talk to and spend time with a holistic vet and animal nutritionist to learn more. I know most vets don't know much about nutrition and It's a priority of mine to learn all I can about it. I plan on incorporating both traditional and holistic medicine into my practice one day.
