Subject: [ferrethealth] Re: Dr. Bruce Williams & Nic Nac's blood panel
To: ferrethealth@yahoogroups.com

When I was at the symposium, Dr. Williams was good enough to look
over the paper work on Nic-Nac and he had said that I should submit
the Chem Panel to him as soon as I had it and he would be good enough
to review it and get back with his thoughts. I was not sure if this
was the place to go to get the information to him or if there is a
better way to contact him./ Thanks to all, Cindy Scheidt

[Moderator's Note:
I will forward in case he is using a different address for this now but see
this webpage by Dr. Williams"
