Health Professionals
At Optibac we recognise the important work that Health Professionals do. We have teams dedicated to providing Health Care Professionals (HCP) and Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) practitioners with the tools needed to recommend and educate on live cultures and Optibac products.
HCP team
Our dedicated HCP team are Seher Azazi (NT Dip CNM) and Diana Koklonis (BNutDiet (Hons), MSc).
The team provide education to Health Care Professionals on all aspects of live cultures use in healthcare situations. If you are an HCP you can access free Health Professional Academy educational modules on:
- Probiotics role in urovaginal health
- Childhood microbiome & the role of probiotics
- Probiotics for antibiotics associated diarrhoea
Please contact the HCP team for more information and/or if you'd like to book a product training at hcp@optibacprobiotics.co.uk
CAM team
Our dedicated CAM practitioner support team are Sarah Oboh (BSc (Hons) Nutrition, ANutr) and Lissa Leader (Registered Nutritional Therapist, DipCNM, mBANT, CNHC).
They provide regular online product training sessions for CAM practitioners. These 1-hour online sessions provide an overview of our product range and the most appropriate live cultures protocols to use in clinical practice.

We also run sessions for Ireland CAM practitioners. Please email us to reserve a slot: cam.support@wrenlabs.com
CAM practitioners may like to access the recordings of our latest CPD accredited webinars in association with IHCAN magazine.

Next CAM webinar - The Effects of Ageing on the Microbiome
Lissa Leader will be hosting a CPD accredited webinar in association with IHCAN magazine on Tuesday, 21st March at 6.30pm.
As we grow older, our microbiome changes and this may have an impact on digestive health, intimate health, and immune function. During this webinar, we will assess whether the microbiome might hold a key to the ageing process, and we will also explore how probiotics could play a part in a holistic support protocol to help optimise the microbiome of older people.
