About Stefanos


 

Tell us a bit about you:

I was born and raised in Kozani, Greece.  My grandparents used to be farmers and my family always kept animals when I was growing up, chickens, pigs, goats and a horse just to name a few. Growing up surrounded by animals I started to love them and respect them and from a young age I wanted to work with animals.  I studied veterinary medicine in Greece graduating in 2017 and moved to England in 2019 to further my knowledge.

 

What are your qualifications and interests?

Currently I’m pursuing a certificate in internal medicine with the university of Liverpool and I have special interests in cardiology, imaging and soft tissue surgery.
