Summary
A dedicated and adaptable veterinary surgeon with a strong background in animal nutrition, health, and reproduction, particularly in dairy and beef cattle. With over five years of experience across Turkey and the UK, I bring expertise in herd management, slaughterhouse procedures, and food safety compliance. I am confident working independently in both clinical and field settings, including community clinics where I’ve led vaccination programs and general health checks. Skilled in export certification processes and committed to high standards of animal welfare. Currently pursuing a PhD in Animal Nutrition, I am passionate about continuous learning and providing the highest level of care to every patient.
