Dr Sue Paterson is one of the top veterinary dermatologists in the country. She has recently been elected as a Fellow of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons for her contributions to clinical practice in the field of Veterinary Dermatology.
Dr Sue has written 7 text books including “Skin Diseases of the Dog” published in 1998, and “Medical Management of Otitis Externa” published in 2005. These have sold worldwide and have been translated into many languages including German, Spanish, Chinese and Russian.
Not only that, but she is newly elected President of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons (March 2023), is Vice President of the British Small Animal Veterinary Association and is Senior Vice President of the European Society of Veterinary Dermatologists.
In her spare time she is a keen walker with her husband Richard and her two Labradors Thornton and Saffron.
I could not have been more excited to be invited to an interview with Dr Sue Paterson (yes one of my ‘vet idols’) where she asked me all about Sustainable Pet Foods!!
“As a vet, I believe in a kinder, healthier way to feed our pets that does no damage to our environment, harms no animals and uses fresh, healthy plant-based ingredients for a balanced and delicious diet”
