I first came to work in this practice in 1969 after working for two years in Scotland . I became a partner in the practice in 1972 when it was  predominantly a large animal practice. Since this time I have seen a gradual build up in the small animal and equine parts of the practice whilst there has been a decline in the number of working farms in the area. 

My interests include attending local point to points and Sedgefield Racecourse.
