Kentdale hospital director Sharon Murtagh said: \u201cWe are delighted Toby is rejoining our team in a clinical capacity.<\/p>\n

\u201cToby has a wealth of experience in all areas of small animal orthopaedics and spinal surgery and is well known for the exceptional care he gives to clients and the support he gives to referring vets.\u201d<\/p>\n

For many years he has been active in the AO Foundation, a global not-for-profit organisation dedicated to improving patient outcomes following orthopaedic surgery, as part of the AOVET European board, the Education Commission, the International Board, and the AO Board of Trustees. Toby was chair of the AOVET European board from 2018 to 2022.<\/p>\n

Toby has authored more than 50 scientific papers, conference abstracts and book chapters, and has given presentations in the UK and around the world on a wide variety of topics relating to small animal orthopaedics and spinal surgery.<\/p>\n

He enjoys all aspects of small animal orthopaedics and spinal surgery, and has additional interests in clinical research, effectiveness of postgraduate education, coaching and mentorship, team building, and development of clinical leadership.<\/p>\n
