Romain Pizzi

After 20 months part-time locum I have a last week at #EdinburghUniversity vet school’s exotics dept. Been enjoyable, & privilege working with so many skilled #vets across disciplines… but really looking forward to getting back to #wildlifevet work full time now!

Thanks to Dr #NeilHudson FRCVS MP for hosting a parlimentary reception for the #BritishVets (BVA) this afternoon. Fantastic turnout, and was great to again emphasise along with #vetnurse colleagues the real need for a new Veterinary Surgeons act

@shawnapandya Had a somewhat similar experience while suturing up a bear that suddenly from anaesthesia!

The early days of aviation medicine were absolutely WILD 👀😳🏥🚀 Source: Principles of Clinical Medicine for Spaceflight, 2nd Ed.

@shawnapandya Oh no!

Today in adventures NOBODY asked for...* • *(this is turning into the WORST recurring series) • (She's back after bribing her with treats, but not before she tried to make friends with chickadees & magpies, who were loving the new weird-looking green kid on their block)🤦🏽‍♀️🦜

This month #SURGERY is in conversation with Dr @RomainPizzi. A world-renowned #veterinary #surgeon, Romain has travelled the globe operating on almost every species you can think of - and some you won’t have heard of. Read his remarkable story: surgery.international/a-little-bit-o… 💉🦁

Romain Pizzi's wild insights at #WEM23! 🦅 Exotic animal care inspires innovation with frugal techniques. Alligator wounds heal 8X slower than eagle wings! 🤯 Cross-species medicine offers valuable lessons. Share your takeaways! 🌟 #PushingBoundaries

#WorldExtremeMed #WEM23 Not my usual conference, but looking forward to speaking tomorrow & so far learning from wilderness and expeditionary medics - this talk on medical planning for a mission to Mars (great intellectual challenges to get one thinking across boundaries)

@emmagraeauthor @LuathPress Exciting!

Almaist ready fur the printer! #TheHooletThitCouldnaeFly #ScotsLanguage @LuathPress

Wonderful to visit #ProjectMoonBear, #Korea and see the excellent work they are doing. These Asiatic black #bears are naturally tiny compared to other regions of the species range…

Oh dear! Perhaps a picture if an actual #Beaver rather than a #Coypu would have been better?! That aside great to see all the positive coverage and please we could hep in a small way #BeaverTrust #FiveSistersZoo

Meeting another master, Dr. @RomainPizzi Excellent surgeon with endoscopy and working with wildlife all around the world. Finally meet in person. His talk is awesome👏💪🔥

Great talk by Dr Muhammad Agil on future of captive breeding of #SumatranRhino in Indonesia at #FeelTheImpact ASCM conference in Korea - always wonderful to see hard work and optimism can pay dividends in #ConservationMedicine work

For thousands of years people have turned to nature for solace, calm, perspective and wisdom - we need engagement with nature more than ever now!

Was honoured to be an invited speaker at the Asian Society of #ConservationMedicine #ASCM conference in #Korea - so good to see so many old friends (and make new ones!)

@ThatVetSean @BeaverTrust @EalingCouncil @WildlifeEaling @CitizenZoo @FriHoHi @NaturalEngland @LDN_environment @MayorofLondon Keep up the good work Sean - they don’t perhaps mean ill - but if only things were that simple…

Unfortunately, fences & gates part & parcel of beaver reintro now. An army of volunteers w/genuine care for nature part of Ealing Beaver Project so this graffiti message stung a little. The fence, stark as it is, will soften w/time & protects their welfare in an urban environment

@teenymac @bbcalba Very kind! Never seem to see myself (probably beat as my kids always super embarrassed about me!)

Watching @RomainPizzi treating wallabies, narrated Gaelic, on @bbcalba . Surreal!
