Many congratulations to Veterinary Nurse Laura Sproul, who recently found out that she has passed her certificate in Small Animal Nutrition. This is the culmination of two years of study, a case report and exam.
Laura has been putting her knowledge into use for the benefit of our patients, with improved protocols on in-patient feeding, fact sheets for clients, and a range of nurse clinics. A nutrition consultation and follow up advice with Laura is great value at £20. To book an appointment with her, please contact us via WhatsApp, phone or email.
These are the areas she can help with:
🐾 Patients that have been recommended therapeutic diets e.g. kidney diets, hydrolysed diets for allergies.
🐾 Patients that would benefit from therapeutic diets to ease symptoms e.g. skin or digestive issues.
🐾 General advice on life-stage feeding.
🐾 Advice on choosing and assessing diets, including terms used on pet food and how to read food labels.
🐾 Advice on the pros and cons of feeding niche diets such as: plant based, insect protein and raw diets to enable owners to make an educated decision prior to changing to these diets.
You can find out more about nutrition and access various factsheets, and further links on our nutrition page.
