Biography

Owen graduated from Cambridge University in 2005 and worked in general practice for almost 10 years before specializing, including over 3 years as a rural (mainly large animal) vet, 3 years of work for charities in the UK and India, and over 3 years in progressive small animal practice. Towards the end of his time in general practice he developed a strong interest in small animal medicine and oncology and passed examinations to award him membership of the Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (chapter of Small Animal Medicine) in 2012. Owen completed a residency in medical oncology at the Royal Veterinary College of London in 2017, and started work for Highcroft Referrals (now Bristol Vet Specialists) soon afterwards. Since then Owen has built up the oncology service at BVS to a 5-vet service, overseen the introduction of radiation therapy and started an ECVIM-CA residency program with 2 residents currently enrolled. Owen has been recognized as a Board-certified specialist in veterinary oncology in America since 2018, the UK since 2019 and Europe since 2021. He is interested in all aspects of medical oncology, especially haematopoietic malignancies, novel therapies for cancer and above all, improving the treatment of cancer in veterinary practice.
