Episode 202: Dr. Craig Webb on GI Conundrums in Feline Healthcare

Dr. Ashlie Saffire, DVM, DABVP (Feline) chats with Dr. Craig Webb, PhD, DVM, DACVIM, Colorado State University on recent GI conundrums in feline healthcare. Dr. Webb helps us to understand recent terminology changes (such as the differences between chronic enteropathy versus irritable bowel disease); his preferred treatment approach and diagnostic tools; the length of time he gives for each diet trial; and the importance of communicating with caregivers about the diet trial process. Dr. Webb also provides insight on why thorough assessments are needed and how the age and severity of illness in the patient will guide his treatment approach.
