Dr. Luis Fazenda
Doctor of Veterinary Medicine (DVM), IVAS certified
Driven by a deep-seated passion for innovation and medical advancement in my field, I have dedicated my life to becoming a leading equine veterinarian.
Throughout my education and early professional career, I have had the privilege of learning and practicing at some of the premier Veterinary Medicine Centers.
As my interest in Integrative Medicine grew, I was able to collaborate with renowned experts and authors in Integrative Veterinary Medicine, each contributing significantly to their fields and enhancing the collective knowledge of veterinary care.
My commitment to advancing equine health extends beyond my clinical practice. I am resolute in my mission to further my research, aiming to identify and implement the most progressive and effective treatment methods available.
By doing so, I hope to make these innovations accessible to a broader audience, ultimately improving the quality of care for equine patients worldwide.
My vision is not only to elevate veterinary practices but also to inspire the next generation of veterinarians to embrace a holistic approach to animal care.
I am currently practicing in the Southwest of France.
