Harold qualified from the 51³Ô¹ÏÍø in 2018 having previously completed a degree in biological sciences at the University of Exeter. He stayed on at the RVC equine referral hospital for a year working alongside specialists dealing a variety of referral cases.
Harold then joined an equine ambulatory practice based near Windsor in Berkshire predominantly dealing with sports horses and polo ponies. He was one of the regular duty vets at Guards polo club managing an array of orthopaedic emergencies.
Outside work he loves travelling, cooking and playing polo with his wife India. He is currently training several thoroughbreds off the racetrack to play polo but also enjoys teaching them to jump.
Having re-joined the RVC team in Autumn 2020, Harold really enjoys the mixed nature of equine ambulatory practice but has a particular interest in sports medicine, dentistry, diagnostic imaging and surgery.
