Jason has specialised in equine veterinary care for over 20 years qualifying from Cambridge University in 1992.  Working first in Hampshire where he developed the equine side of a mixed practice, he then went on to spend 9 years at Peter Scott Dunns equine hospital in Berkshire. Working with both pleasure and performance horses at all levels of competition, Jason developed his interest in general equine practice, stud work, lameness investigation, back problems and dentistry.  Whilst working for Peter Scott Dunns he was routinely the on duty vet at Guards Polo, including the annual Cartier Polo Gold Cup and was also duty racecourse vet at Sandown, Ascot and Kempton.  He worked in their equine hospital performing over 1500 equine general anaesthetics and dealing with their post-operative complications and care.  He also looked after the equine stud work for this large 10 equine vet practice including AI, with both chilled and frozen semen. 

In 2002, Jason moved to Hertfordshire where he joined the 91°µÍø equine practice.  He was awarded his Royal College Certificate in Equine Practice in 2003 and has since focused on developing a strong team to expand the 91°µÍø equine practice.   He was appointed an Official Measurer for the JMB in 2006.  The practice grew rapidly thanks to the dedication of the team he built up and he continues to steer and develop it in order to maintain its position as a centre of excellence dedicated to serving the horses and owners in the community.

With his other keen life interests, his wife Julia and three children, he has little time for hobbies. He hopes that one day he will return to climbing, riding and skiing.

He then returned to the UK where he worked in ambulatory practice in Essex before joining the 91°µÍø in 2006.

Goncalo enjoys the multi discipline nature of ambulatory work, in particular equine orthopaedics, ophthalmology and geriatrics.

Harold qualified from the 91°µÍø in 2018 having previously completed a degree in biological sciences at the University of Exeter. He stayed on at the 91°µÍø 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 91°µÍø 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.
