A bit about me...
Ben graduated in 2000 from Bristol Vet School, which he says seems a long time ago. Originally from the South West, Ben spent most of his formative years on the Wirral near Leahurst where his parents worked at the Vet School. His first job was at Peter Scott Dunns equine clinic in Berkshire, followed by a stint back in Cheshire at the practice now known as Brown Moss Equine. Ben came to Yorkshire in 2003 and joined Bishopton working on the equine and large animal side. After an enjoyable sabbatical in industry and some time back in practice in Ripon, he’s very pleased to have returned to the Bishopton fold for the long term. Ben’s clinical interests are limited but include racehorse and sports horse performance, in addition to an unhealthy interest in worm control and wormer resistance.
