BVSc (Qld), Veterinarian
Dr Glen Laws is a male Veterinarian.
Glen graduated from the University of Queensland in 1981. He is part of a veterinary family with his father, David, a long term partner at the Oakey Veterinary Hospital, and an uncle, brother and wife also in the profession. He spent his first five years following graduation at One Tree Hill, South Australia under the guidance of the late Dr Howard Mortimer (‘Mort’), in a predominantly equine practice.
Glen and his family then travelled for 12 months doing locums in equine practices in Queensland and Darwin before coming back to Oakey to work in 1988. Here he developed a strong interest in racetrack practice, lameness and equine performance investigation, as well as expanding the equine chiropractic services his father established.
Glen spent four years working in York UK between 1993-7 and maintains strong friendships with the vets from The Minster Vets (previously Grant and Partners), where he was responsible for a number of large racing stables and studs.
Since his return from the UK Glen has continued racetrack, reproduction, performance horse and chiropractic practice on the Darling Downs. After more than three decades working as an equine veterinarian he is still dedicated to his profession, striving for good service based on sound practical advice and experience, as well as utilising the latest tools and technology available. He enjoys mentoring younger veterinarians and the day to day interactions with owners and trainers.
