Experience

Dr. Wendy Baltzer is a leading figure in the international veterinary community. Her passion and extensive experience in Veterinary Medicine have led her to become involved in the field of research in Small Animal Veterinary Surgery. In this way, she has multiple publications in academic and scientific media, most of them very well positioned, reflecting an index H 20 in Google Scholar.  

Likewise, in her studies reflected in publications she defends the use of ultrasound and radiographs to predict the time of delivery in small animals, thereby reducing the likelihood of neonatal morbidity and mortality. In addition, she associates a decrease in pup vitality with the use of thiobarbiturates, ketamine and inhalation anesthetics. 

Similarly, her work also focuses on the effects of oxidative stress on agility exercise in dogs, ligament and tendon injuries, improved impulse fracture repair, as well as injuries in working, sport, police and military dogs. She has also devoted much of her studies to osteoarthritis, low back pain, taping techniques and omentum grafting for bone healing. 

She has taught at major academic institutions such as the School of Veterinary Science at Massey University, as well as Oregon State University. In the latter, she held a position of high responsibility, occupying the position of director of its Rehabilitation Center. Likewise, her work at Sydeny University focuses on teaching the clinical practice of Small Animal Surgery, while continuing to develop her research in the fields of Surgery, Sports Medicine and Rehabilitation.
