Sam holds the European Diploma in Equine Dentistry – the highest possible level of qualification in the subject. Sam is one of a very small number of equine vets who have also taken the joint BEVA / BAEDT equine dental technicians exam.
Indeed uniquely Sam obtained his BAEDT qualification after studying in both the UK and the USA before he started at Vet school.
Sam is an RCVS recognised advanced practitioner in both equine dentistry and equine practice. Sam has lectured on equine dentistry and acted as an examiner for the BEVA/BAEDT examinations. He has been co author of a number of published papers in various journals on equine dentistry. He qualified as a vet in 2007 and has gained experience in a mixed practice in Fife Scotland.
Outside of work Sam is an enthusiastic rugby player and competes at show jumping. Sam was also the first Vet to obtain the RCVS Certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice – Equine Dentistry.
Sam loves teaching people about equine dentistry – so when His Royal Highness The Prince of Wales visited the clinic he took the opportunity to demonstrate how to perform a thorough dental examination.

I am a veterinary pathologist working at the veterinary school of Lyon. I graduated in 2002 from the veterinary school of Milan (Italy) and I gained a PhD in pathology of laboratory animals in 2005. After completing a residency program at the veterinary school of Nantes (France), in 2009 I obtained the ECVP diploma. Since 2009, I have been working as assistant professor in pathology at the veterinary school of Lyon (France). Here I am in charge of undergraduate teaching (inflammation, nervous and genital system pathology, necropsies), I am supervisor of residents in pathology and I participate in pathology formation of residents in oncology and internal medicine. I perform histological analysis on samples coming from our teaching hospital, especially tumors, since our oncology service is the only one present in this region. Since the beginning of my career my main field of interest is comparative oncology. I worked on several spontaneous and induced animal models. At the moment, I coordinate an European program to evaluate the canine nervous system tumor classification and grading and I work on several canine spontaneous tumors to study the immune microenvironment and its impact on therapy and prognosis.
