Red Horse. Veterinary Services

Equine medicine

My name is Olga Drewnowska and I’m a DVM, specializing in equine medicine. I’ve been working with horses since childhood – first as the rider, then as the owner of two horses and now also as an equine veterinarian.

For the last 20 years I’ve attended not only dressage and jumping competitions, but also Silversand Natural Horsemanship courses, which developed my knowledge of equine behavior. Thanks to this I’m aware of their needs and what health risks are hidden beneath the sport disciplines.

During my studies I’d been travelling through Poland and abroad in order to develop theoretical and practical knowledge on how to deal with various equine diseases. I had my privilege to work with most well-known vets in equine hospitals in Gliwice (dr Golonka), Janów Podlaski (dr Karcz), Służewiec (dr Samsel), Belgium (Dierenkliniek de Morette nad de Bosdreef), Vienna (Faculty of Veterinary Medicine), Switzerland (Faculty in Bern and Zurich), United Kingdom (Leahurst in Liverpool, Faculty in Bristol). For broadening my mind I also worked in small animal clinic, but after graduation I finally decided that I want to devote my practice to horses and I started my own practice – Red Horse Veterinary.

I’ve been working as a scientific teaching assistant in Surgery Department of Large Animal Diseases with Clinic on University of Life Sciences in Warsaw since 2012 and developing my skills especially in anaesthesia and ophthalmology. I’m teaching polish and foreign students. Fluent English language, written and spoken, allowed me to cooperate with Medical Tribune publisher and VetPd courses on medical translations field.

I’ve been publishing papers quite frequently in polish and foreign scientific magazines and work scientifically – my research are focused on developing more accurate brain monitoring techniques during anesthesia in horses.

In 2021 I started a new branch of my practice – Red Horse Academy, devoted to teach horse owners and care takers about their problems in order to promote better understanding of the horse health.
