I then completed my veterinary nurse training and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in June 2015. I developed a keen interest in diabetes after one of my own cats developed the condition and I saw first-hand the difficulties owners can experience in caring for their diabetic pets, so I now run nurse diabetic clinics to share my experience.”- Emily Knight, RVN
