Katrin Jahn

DrMedVet, CertVA, MRCVS ACVB and ECAWBM Resident in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine

Katrin graduated as a veterinarian from the University of Munich, Germany in 1999 after which she spent 7 years working in a variety of practices in the UK. During this time, Katrin earnt the RCVS “Certificate in Veterinary Anaesthesia” and completed a doctorate thesis in animal behavior before moving to the UAE in 2006. 
Enchanted by the UAE and its opportunities, Katrin opened her own small animal clinic - the German Veterinary Clinic - in Abu Dhabi in 2008. The clinic grew from herself and 2 nurses to a team of over 20 in the space of 10 years and is the first ISFM Gold Standard Cat Friendly Clinic in the Middle East.
Alongside Feline Medicine and Anaesthesia, Katrin has a huge passion for Veterinary Behaviour Medicine and Animal Welfare.
Last year, Katrin embarked on a 4 year residency program in Veterinary Behaviour Medicine with both the American as well as European Colleges of Animal Welfare and Behaviour Medicine and hopes to take her board exams in 2023. 
Katrin feels strongly that the mental and emotional health of her patients are as important as their physical health.
Outside of work, Katrin loves spending time with her own animals – 2 dogs and 2 cats and is a competitive horse rider. She also loves yoga and spending time with friends and family.
