Biography

Background

Nick graduated from Cambridge Veterinary School in 2005. After undertaking in internship in equine studies, he spent 6 years in equine ambulatory practice in Somerset and Hertfordshire, during which time he completed the RCVS Certificate in Equine Internal Medicine. He made the decision to return to academic veterinary medicine in 2013, spending 3 years at the Virginia-Maryland College of Veterinary Medicine in the USA, doing a Large Animal Medicine residency combined with a Masters degree. He is now a board certified Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine (Large Animal). His clinical interest include all aspects of equine internal medicine, with a particular emphasis on gastrointestinal conditions and neonatal medicine, although if pressed he will grudgingly admit to an interest in alpacas. He is currently an Edinburgh Clinical Academic Track (ECAT) Veterinary Clinical Lecturer.
