Thomas John Barr BVMS MRCVS, Founder and Director

Tom Barr is a veterinary surgeon with 35 years experience working with horses and cattle. For nearly 30 years in large animal veterinary practice he developed a particular interest in preventing and controlling disease, for the benefit of his clients and the welfare of the animals under his care, by harnessing the benefits of immunology. During this time the increasing popularity of the horse and increasing work with such eminent race horse trainers as Jonjo O’Neil and the late Gordon Richards along with local horse breeders attracted his special interest. After “retiring” from practice Tom followed his fascination with veterinary immunology and the particular needs of the neonatal foal by further developing the technology and science of transfusion medicine utilising equine plasma. He has ensured, along with the enthusiastic support of his wife, son and team of dedicated personnel that the Company has risen to the challenges of compliance with all the regulatory authorities attaining standards in blood product quality that are unsurpassed. He continues, also, to assure the highest standards of customer care providing technical support and veterinary advice.
