EQUINE SOUNDNESS - Key Persons
Inspired by Strasser clinics, Dr. Skinner became a certified Strasser Hoofcare Professional in 2003. He was excited to see, in Dr Strasser's work, an opportunity to change the paradigm of today's veterinary thought.
Steve Skinner graduated from Washington State University College of Veterinary Medicine in 1971 and carried out his internship at the University of California-Davis in 1972. He became the administrative director of the DLM Emergency Veterinary Clinic in Portland, Oregon, in 1973, where he still is on-call as a consultant, for emergencies in neurology and neurosurgery. He took a residency in Neurology and Neurosurgery at Good Samaritan Hospital and the Oregon Health Sciences Center in Portland. He began his speciality practice at the Oregon Veterinary Specialty Hospital in 1976 and has been a specialist in private practice in Neurology and Neurosurgery, since that time.
Dr. Skinner is presently working as a member of the Oregon Veterinary Specialty Hospital in Beaverton, Oregon.
In addition to his regular veterinary work, he runs his equine rehab clinic from his facility in Portland.
