Raul Collado

As a child I wanted to be a doctor to help people with rare diseases, but I ended up studying veterinary medicine instead, having grown up on a family farm surrounded by different animals. I qualified in 1995.

I have seen veterinary work in different countries such as China, Holland, Spain, Turkey and Bulgaria before settling in the UK in 2018. I have a lot of family and friends around the world.

Being from a Caribbean background, the ocean and Caribbean food are very important to me. I have two sons whom I love to pass time with. In my free time I also love to walk, run and socialise where I prefer Latin/African dancing.
