TERRY CASEY

SPIRIT OF SAEVA AWARD 2018

Sponsored by Stride
Terry qualified in 1987 at Onderstepoort . After completing his 2 years national service , working as a veterinarian , he did 3 month locum before joining Fourways Equine Clinic in January 1990 .
He has been there ever since , working in both the race horse and competition horse disciplines . He is a family man and has a teenage son- Devon and is husband to Anne . In his off time- he paddles and enjoys his annual “ boys ” holiday .
Fourways Equine was located in Fourways on the corner of Witkoppen Road ( opposite the current Monte Casino ). In those days it was little more than an intersection with a garage and a pharmacy . Largely because of its isolation at that time , Fourways
Veterinary Clinic was a mixed practice working with all species of animal .
Fourways Equine Clinic started trading in its present form under Drs Angelo Nichas and Alex Niven and in 1990 Dr Crocky du Preez returned from a sojourn at the coast to re-join the practice . In 1998 the practice moved to its current location in Blue Hills , under Drs Crocky du Preez and Terry Casey , as founder members of Equicare , a novel concept in sharing hospital facilities .
