Dr. Patrick D. Buckley
BSc (Hons) BVM&S MRCVS
Principle Veterinary Surgeon
Paddy has been involved in farm animal Veterinary since he could find wellies to fit him and maybe even before that! The son of a long serving and well respected farm Veterinary surgeon in Co. Cork Ireland, he has witnessed many changes from his father’s traditional practice to the large multi-vet practices of today.
He has worked in large animal practice since qualifying as a Veterinary surgeon and has worked extensively throughout the UK including Wiltshire, Shropshire, North Wales, New Zealand and Scotland.
Having developed a strong interest in cattle fertility and its integration into farm management, he decided to launch Target Veterinary Services. Through discussion with farmers and industry professionals he felt there was a growing disconnect between what famers required versus what was being provided for them.
When not working Paddy is a keen sportsman, having just completed his third half Ironman, and successfully completed a full Ironman distance in June, in his home county. He enjoys running and road biking, but also a Guinness now and then watching his home country play rugby!
