Who is Zoë?

“Equine internal medicine is my first real passion.   I am very fortunate to be even more fascinated by this now than I was as a new graduate. If ever someone opens a call to me with “I’m sorry to bother you” I think no, you don’t understand, I’m genuinely always glad to hear from anyone who wants to talk about a horse, donkey or equine medicine! I take great enjoyment from pulling together practical experience and published information to find workable solutions for horses with medical problems.

Only in more recent years have I learned how much I also care about supporting vets in practice.  Being in equine practice is challenging, and if I can make that a bit easier through internal medicine support, then I’m delighted.”
