Evan David was born in San Francisco, California, and grew up there until 1986 when the family moved to Aberdaron in North Wales for a year’s sabbatical. It was during this time he started working on a neighbouring beef and sheep farm, and continued to do this every summer until graduating from Liverpool University Veterinary School in 2003. During his studies at Liverpool much of his work experience took place on large Dairy Farms in Northern California, which is sometimes shortened to NorCal by locals. This was an invaluable experience in modern, large scale dairy farming. After graduating as a Vet from Liverpool, Evan’s first job was a farm vet in Somerset which he held for 2 years until he and his wife Clare decided to move back closer to family in Marlow. Evan then worked as a farm vet for Hall Place Vets in Marlow who were then bought out by Larkmead Veterinary Group shortly afterwards, hence his move there. Evan’s progressive, friendly, common sense, hands-on approach to veterinary work, won a lot of respect from the farming community in the area. In 2010, Evan took an offer from H&C Pearce to open a large animal practice on their site. Evan founded NorCal Veterinary Services in November 2010 to provide farmers in the area with a high quality relationship-based veterinary service. His interests are football, water-skiing, surfing and spending time with Clare and their children.
