Lance H. Bassage II, V.M.D. Diplomate ACVS

We are sorry to announce Dr. Lance Bassage's departure from Rhinebeck Equine in December 2010. However, we are very proud of his professional achievement of appointment as Assistant Professor in the Department of Clinical Studies, Ontario Veterinary College, University of Guelph. There he will assume a central role in developing the Equine Sports Medicine and Reproductive Center.

We are glad in knowing he will prosper in an academic environment with a variety of new challenges. However, our gladness for him is tempered with sadness. Dr. Bassage has been with Rhinebeck Equine since the opening of our hospital facility in 2002, and he was instrumental in the development of the patient care protocols and surgical standards that have made us so successful. We will miss him, and wish him the best in his new position.
