Victoria Colgate
MA VetMB MSc MRCVS
Vicky qualified from the University of Cambridge in 2014. After graduating she completed a Clinical Training Scholarship in Equine medicine and surgery at the Cambridge Equine Hospital before working in a busy polo practice in Ascot. She joined Rossdales Equine Hospital in June 2017 as the Margaret Giffen Resident in Clinical Research, where in addition to carrying out research projects she attained an MSc in Veterinary Epidemiology and Public Health. After time away in a specialist role as a Veterinary Epidemiologist at Equine Infectious Disease Surveillance (EIDS), Vicky returned to Rossdales in July 2023 as a Research Associate, a role kindly funded by the Margaret Giffen Charitable Trust.
She has a strong interest in the care and welfare of sports horses and drives forward the practice's application of evidence-based medicine through implementation of clinic-based research and production of associated publications. Her ResearchGate profile can be viewed here.
In her spare time Vicky can be found playing netball for a local team or running in the countryside with her whippet Archie.
