Episode 13: Dr. Stanley Marks – Get the scoop on feline poop, part 2

Stanley "Stan" Marks

We had so much fun talking with Dr. Stanley Marks of UC Davis School of Veterinary Medicine that we recorded two podcasts while we were at New York Vet. Here is part two, where we talk about the best diagnostic approach for gastrointestinal disease, whether full thickness biopsy is better than endoscopic biopsy, how to use cobalamin as a diagnostic tool and for treatment, and how to tell inflammatory bowel disease from lymphoma. Enjoy!

IMG_6241Beautiful Istanbul, where Asia reaches Europe. What an amazing city and friendly people. Jolle is speaking for Purr Podcast at the first ever feline congress in Turkey. We are expecting 250+ catfanvets and we can not wait for our lectures to begin. Topics are feline soft tissue surgery (guess what topics?) and a combi lecture with the famous Dr. Craig Clifford about feline oncology. Craig and I will be strolling through the city on Saturday so if you are around let us know! Now I am just praying that the rain will stop…. Picture was taken at the Patisev cat clinic from the awesome Dr. Gizem TakTak. Love her!
