Niessen Forcada Institute - Veterinary Specialist Consultations

Over Niessen Forcada Institute - Veterinary Specialist Consultations

The Niessen Forcada Institute for Veterinary Specialist Consultations was founded by Dr Yaiza Forcada and Professor Dr Stijn Niessen, two Board Certified Veterinary Specialists (internal medicine), with extensive experience in veterinary clinical practice, academia, private practice, education, project and people management and research.

It aims to provide ethically sound, evidence-based, high quality, innovative help in all matters relating to animal health and veterinary, including education, mentorship, research and clinical support.

Among many other things, it offers expertise in veterinary referrals in the Netherlands (www.niessenforcada.com), telemedicine, research and education. Example activities include a collaboration with the Veterinary Information Network (a community of >110,000 veterinarians; www.vin.com) to create a Veterinary Mentorship Academy (www.vin.com/vma), as well as growing its membership globally, with a focus on Europe (www.vin.com/europe). In addition it has helped develop a new oral drug for diabetes in pets after years of having only insulin injections as a treatment option. Trial design and execution are second nature to us. Veterinary Specialist Consultations also provides unique and innovative Continuous Professional Development (CE) services driven by passion to teach, a strong believe in application of logic and growth mindset. It provides these services for Universities, non-profit societies, other CE providers as well as many other interested parties.

In addition the Institute delivers advice on a consultancy basis to a range of veterinary, medical, educational, one health, pharmaceutical and other (animal) health institutions, individuals and companies.

The Institute takes pride in trying to do the right thing for the right reasons.

We are "mental health awareness" trained.

We always strive to remain independent, friendly, ethical, value-based and kind.
