If you’ve ever felt stuck managing recurring GI disease, this conversation might just give you a new tool for your veterinary toolbox. Gang, let’s get into this episode.ABOUT OUR GUESTDr. Lily Chen, DVM, CVA, IVCCP is the founder of Integrative Pet Wellness Center in Los Angeles and The Unicorn Vet, an education platform helping veterinarians turn microbiome theory into clinical reality.Through her course, The Magic of Microbiome, Dr. Chen teaches vets how to make FMT and microbiome therapy practical, profitable, and implementable—because the science is solid, but most practitioners don't know where to start.
