Bob Stevenson

Bob Stevenson

Bob Stevenson is one of the most highly respected pig experts in the country – he qualified as a vet in 1966 and gained an extra qualification in Pig Medicine in 1983.  Still a practising vet, Bob has also been President of the Pig Veterinary Society, and is Consultant to the British Pig Association and President of the Pedigree Welsh Pig Society. 

During his career, Bob has been a Pig Certificate examiner for the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons and a guest lecturer at Liverpool University Veterinary School.  He currently assesses farmers and students for various agricultural and medicine awards.

To put it another way, what Bob doesn’t know about pigs isn't worth knowing… as you'll find out if you join one of his fascinating and lively courses.
