I was scrolling through a list of avian & exotic animal veterinarians on a website and my eye caught this man's name because I saw "ferret". Has anyone ever heard of Dr. Schoemaker? Too bad you have to be a member of this organization (LafeberVet) to read the Adrenocortical Disease in Ferrets article under Dr. Schoemaker's bio. I can't tell if he actually LIVES (currently) in Europe or just studied there. Here's the link to the website: http://www.lafebervet.com/bios/ And right on the homepage there's an article titled "Esophagostomy Tube Placement in the Ferret.". I did a search on "ferret" and up came with a ton of stuff: http://www.lafebervet.com/small-mammal-medicine-2/ferret/ BIO for Dr. Nico Schoemaker: " Dr. Nico Schoemaker is a staff veterinarian in the Division of Avian and Exotic Animal Medicine from Utrecht University. Nico graduated and completed an internship in companion animal medicine, followed by a residency in avian medicine and surgery at Utrecht University. Dr. Schoemaker is a diplomate of the European College of Avian Medicine and Surgery, a diplomate of the American Board of Veterinary Practitioners certified in avian medicine, and a Dutch avian specialist. This specialty training was followed by a PhD study on hyperadrenocorticism in ferrets. He has written numerous articles on avian and ferret medicine, and he has presented at many conferences, workshops and post graduate courses locally and internationally. Read Adrenocortical Disease in Ferrets reviewed by Dr. Schoemaker." (Awesome to see two doctors on the list that I know well and who have treated my ferrets in the past: Dr. Cathy Johnson-Delaney and Dr. Adolf Maas - both in the Seattle, WA area) Jennifer Brown Our purpose in life is to find our gift, perfect it, and give it back to others Saving one dog will not change the world, but surely for that one dog the world will change forever [Posted in FML 7932]
