Marc the Vet
AboutMarc Abraham qualified from Edinburgh University in 1995. Since then he has helped all types of animals – large and small, domestic and exotic.
Recently voted the 'UK's Favourite Vet', he is based in Brighton, and is specialized in emergency and trauma surgery for dogs, cats and rabbits. He is also responsible for thepet.net, a brand-new unique revolutionary service that now invites you, the pet-owner, to rate how pet-friendly pubs, hotels, caravan parks, vets, etc., are to your pet.
His hard work has been recognised with a string of awards, including scooping the public's vote to win a prestigious Vet Oscar in the 2007 Petplan Vet Awards. He was also recently honored as Patron of Cat Welfare Sussex.
All his life, Marc has been passionate about wildlife and nature, and frequently gives talks at local schools and care-homes about how to respect and preserve our environment.
As well as being the resident vet on Channel 4's Paul O'Grady Show, Marc writes a weekly vet's column in Brighton's top lifestyle magazine Latest Homes, giving pet-healthcare tips, advice for animal-lovers and even seasonal wildlife information.
Marc firmly believes that everyone has a duty to 'give something back' to their community. He flew out to Thailand just days after the devastating Boxing Day tsunami of 2004, helping to rescue and treat the poor injured and starving dogs and cats of Phuket.
He is currently preparing a documentary about a British donkey charity, Safe Haven for Donkeys in the Holy Land, that not only treats sick and injured donkeys, but helps to educate poorer communities and change attitudes in the Palestinian West Bank.
Marc's favourite hobbies include snowboarding and scuba-diving, and his ambition is to travel to Antarctica – and dive under the ice!
