Seminar Topics:
For this all new seminar, I have asked two of the worlds preeminent GI specialists to present a practical seminar on what’s new in the management of canine & feline GI problems.
Dr. Stanley Marks & Dr. Michael Lappin are two of the worlds leading authorities on gastrointestinal diseases. Dr. Marks expertise also involves esophageal disorders, small intestinal diseases, endoscopic diagnostic techniques and nutritional therapy for the GI patient. Dr. Lappin is the world’s leading authority on feline GI diseases and disorders. Both speakers have published extensively in all the major journals & texts including JAVMA, Compendium on Continuing Education & Textbook of Internal Medicine.

The lectures will detail how to manage the majority of the problems when you don’t have access to an endoscope!
