About Speaker

Dr. Beale knew he was going to be a veterinarian since the time he was 9 years old. His original inspiration came from his Grandparents. Growing up he often spent his weekends at their home, covered in drool from playing with their English Mastiffs and Saint Bernard's. In a recent article, Dr. Beale wrote that his grandparents taught him the importance of the human-animal bond and the responsibility we have to provide the best care possible for our pets. Dr. Beale's passion is education. He has spent a large portion of his career teaching hands-on surgical courses and presenting across the world. He co-authored "Small Animal Arthroscopy", an industry-defining textbook on orthopedics. In addition, Dr. Beale has written and published numerous other articles, whitepapers, and book chapters on specialized care. Dr. Beale received his DVM and completed his residency at the University of Florida College of Veterinary Medicine. After his board certification, Dr. Beale joined Gulf Coast Veterinary Specialists in 1992, practicing there until 2019. In 2020, Dr. Beale founded Beale Veterinary Specialists & Emergency (BVSE) with Dr. Mark Besancon and Nexus Veterinary Specialists with Dr. David Dycus. Dr. Beale loves the Houston Zoo and has worked with their expert team of veterinarians on many occasions. Lions, sea turtles, monkeys, sloths, and kangaroos are only a few of the animal species Dr. Beale has worked with at the zoo. Dr. Beale co-starred on NatGeoWILD's hit series, Animal ER, and he has hosted his own radio show, Your Pet's Health, which aired on Houston's KTRH 740.
