What if most of the health issues pet parrots face could have been prevented? In this episode, I sit down with Dr. Noémie Hofman, an exotic animal veterinarian based in Dubai whose career has taken her from working with parrots at the world-famous Loro Parque to tracking chimpanzees in the Ivory Coast, rehabilitating sea turtles in the Maldives, and now treating companion birds and exotics at a Veterinary Clinic in Dubai. We get into the most common medical conditions she sees in parrots and what's actually causing them, how diet and environment directly impact disease, the link between chronic stress and physical illness, the online misinformation that's leading to real clinical problems, and so much more!
Episode Highlights:
- The most common medical conditions in parrots and what's actually causing them

"If you want an animal, specifically a bird, make sure that you read up on them, specifically on the species that you're going to house and if, after documenting yourself and reading up that much, you realize that this is not for you, don't take them." — Dr. Noémie
