We are thrilled to have Dr. James Bancroft-Hunt on our team. Dr. Hunt is an accomplished veterinarian and all around super nice guy. He has a quiet calm approach to animals, which puts both animals and clients at ease. He has sincere empathy for his clients and is very effective at ensuring a good understanding of the treatment and possible outcomes. He is laid back, a team-player, and truly enjoys working with the support staff and colleagues within the practice. He always maintains a fun and positive outlook.

Dr. Hunt has always had a love for animals. From cats and dogs to turtles and ferrets, his family always had animals around. At a young age, Dr. Hunt fell in love with the literary works of a fellow Englishman, veterinarian and author, James Herriot (Alfred Wight). When asked why he has chosen to be a vet Dr. Hunt said, “James Herriot sold me on the idea in his book All Creatures Great and Small. He made it sound like an awful lot of fun. There were triumphs and disasters. I liked how he said that ‘If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans.” Dr. Hunt’s grandparents moved to the countryside when he was about 8 years old. There he spent many holidays around cows, horses, and other farm animals. This brings him to recall another favorite James Herriot quote, “There is more to be learned up a cow’s arse than in many an encyclopedia”. It’s no wonder that our Dr. Hunt is intrigued by large animal medicine too.

Dr. Hunt attended Sparsholt College in Hampshire, UK and earned a B.T.E.C. National Diploma in Agriculture in 1995. He continued his education at The University of Reading in Reading, UK, obtaining an Honours Degree in Animal Science in 2000. He obtained his Bachelor in Veterinary Science (Doctorate of Veterinary Medicine) in 2009 from Massey University in Palmerston North, New Zealand. In 2010, his case study “Necrotising fasciitis in a bull due to infection with Arcanobacterium haemolyticum” was published in the New Zealand Veterinary Journal. In hopes of moving abroad, he completed the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination (N.A.V.L.E.) in 2009. After living and practicing veterinary medicine in England for a few years, Dr. Hunt decided to make his move across the big pond. We were so lucky to have him join our team just a few short weeks later in May of 2013.

In his spare time, Dr. Hunt is an avid photographer and advanced scuba diver. He enjoys walking, fishing, and generally being outdoors. He believes himself to be a lager beer expert and can be found sampling on Sundays while watching his favorite sport, Formula One Grand Prix Racing.
