[Doc]

Hi there everyone, I'm new so none of you know this, but I'm an actual doctor. I can prescribe anything and everything. If you need a preceription I'm sure i can help out.

There you guys go. Now you guys can battle those red bugs even easier.

Welcome Doc. Glad to see another reefer in Park Slope.

Doc, Can you prescribe pet meds?? It is easy if you can do so, each person can place the order them self's on 1800petmeds.com and you just need to fax the prescriptions in for us.

lets just make sure everyone kows this offer is for interceptor only hehe.
if you can get pet meds, I'm sure you will earn many frags that way.

I'm going to rob my vet. HGH and interceptor for everyone YAY

 

[jhale]

well that will confuse them for sure.
"they left all the good meds and just took the interceptor?"

 

[Doc]

ok, I'm new so please slow down a bit. I did not realize that there would be such a rush over this thing. I usually don't like writing presciptions for anyone unless I've at least met them. I plan on coming to the frag swap and I'm bring my presciption pad with me. Is it OK if we wait until then, or is there a desperate need for it now? Also I will be needing the full name of interceptor so I can write it out for the script. Like I said new, so I don't know what it is. Once we meet, Interceptor for everyone!!!!

Doc, this is a link to interceptor,

http://www.1800petmeds.com/heartworm/interceptor.asp?LV=263&PG=Intercept

interceptor is used to kill red bugs which host in acropora and eventually stunt it's growth or kill the coral. If you have red bugs interceptor is a life saver. the problem is getting it, unless you have a large dog, or a friendly vet . there is a ton of more info online, if you want I can send you some more links on the research and treatment using it.

 

[Doc]

OK problem, 1800petmeds.com will not take my precription because I'm an MD, not a VET. They did not ask though, until I asked if it was OK. I'm going to try a few other avenues. We'll see what I can do. Maybe I'll call and not ask if being an MD is a problem. We'll see. I'm also going to try to call the company direct and ask for some "free samples". Like I said I'll keep everyone in the loop.

NYC DVM List

Here is a list of DVMs in NYC.
http://www.aemv.org/newsite/vetlists/listA-K.html#anchor265768
One of these guys is bound to have heard of interceptor killing red bugs. I can drop each one of them an email explaining our situation. The only thing I need from you guys is a good pic of the red bug on the acro and the procedure you use for the dip. As soon as I get it I will do a Veterinary mass mailing.
I will be the DVM spammer :sgrin:

[Doc]

I called the company and they would not give it to me, so I need a volunteer. I want to try to order it for someone, via phone and not not mention the MD part. Do I have a volunteer? PM me please.

 

[jhale]
