Todays guest Cormac White stubbornly decided at about 4 being a vet was his career, and it happened. Some fun at uni before travelling with his career followed!
He found himself after graduating heading to New Zealand and Egypt to practise. Seeing some pretty horrendous things that’s he ‘hopes’ he won’t see again! Eye opening experiences with wonderful people was his explanation of Egypt!
After this he headed back to the UK where he met his now partner and how practises as a farm vet with a focus on small ruminants which led him to consultation on these animals.
Seeing a gap in the market he has taken on a Nuffield scholarship to look at the potential for small ruminant dairy here in the UK with plans to head to Europe, New Zealand and most interestingly, Mongolia!
Great chat with a really good guy!
Enjoy!
