Dr Juan Miguel Ramirez

I obtained my Veterinary degree in 2005 in The University of Córdoba, Spain.  After two years working general practice in Spain I moved to the UK where completed a one-year internship in medicine and small animal surgery at the University of Cambridge. In 2009 I luckily joined the department of Small Animal Surgery at the University of Liege (Belgium) completing the three year residency program of the European College of Veterinary Surgeons in 2012. I then stayed on as assistant professor until joining the Veterinary Referral Center Bahia de Malaga, back in my own city, in April 2013. I passed the European College of Veterinary Surgeons board Examination in February 2017 becoming a European Specialist in Small Animal Surgery.
