Having decided on a career working with farm animals, Andrew then moved to the New Forest, where he served the farming community in Hampshire and Dorset, and further afield for the following eleven years. His main professional interests lie in biosecurity and infectious disease control, in mastitis control and treatment, and in the importance of correct nutrition in the dairy herd.

Nick Lyons  MA VetMB MRCVS

079767 18920

Nick graduated from the University of Cambridge in 2005. During his final year he completed an externship at the food animal hospital within The Ohio State University where he carried out a research project looking at Salmonella prevalence in hospitalised cattle. Upon graduation, he went to University College Dublin to do an internship in large animal medicine, a position that was predominantly bovine but also included some equine work. After completing the internship he moved to the Royal Veterinary College (RVC) to do a residency in Dairy Cow Health and Production, a position that was split between the RVC and the Shepton Vet Group, Somerset. During this time he gained funding from the British Cattle Veterinary Association (BCVA) to do a research project on left displacement of the abomasum, a common condition affecting dairy cattle in the UK. Other research interests include uterine torsions and novel approaches to mastitis diagnosis. During the residency he spent time at the University of Wisconsin - Madison and the University of California - Davis where he gained further dairy experience on larger dairy herds. Nick started working for Westpoint in September 2009 and particularly enjoys carrying out herd health investigations in dairy and beef cattle. He is currently working towards the RCVS Certificate in Cattle Health and Production and European Diploma in Bovine Health Management. In his spare time, Nick enjoys travelling, watching/playing cricket, playing guitar and sitting in pubs.
