Keith Cutler has been a vet for over 30 years and currently works in cattle practice around Somerset, Dorset and into Devon. He is a diplomat of the European College of Bovine Health Management and a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons-recognised specialist in Cattle Health and Production. His interests in the bovine field are many and varied.
