What other health care professionals said about Maggie’s seminar:
Sue, midwife (Coventry):
'Maggie visited our maternity unit to inform us about the complexities of iron absorption and the benefits of Spatone. She gave a very effective and visual presentation supported with research to back up her talk. Myself and the midwives present found it extremely interesting and of particular value for those women on our caseload who have difficulty tolerating conventional iron supplementation. It is my intention to invite Maggie back again to a new group of health care professionals to continue to widen the knowledge of Spatone'.

Anne, midwife (Scotland):
'Maggie has visited us up in Scotland a couple of times to present seminars to NHS 24 staff and midwives in the local maternity unit. Both seminars received very positive feedback - ongoing interest and success with using Spatone since then has been excellent. The seminar is very informative and the comparison between absorption rates and other oral iron therapy is particularly useful in practice. The most positive comment has been that Spatone is 100% natural with no side effects such as constipation or gastro-intestinal upsets'.
