CONTENT DESCRIPTION
Chronic kidney disease (CKD) is fortunately a rare problem in horses, as compared to small animals and people. Unfortunately, most cases of equine CKD are only identified when the disease is advanced, causing lethargy and loss of condition. CKD is by nature a progressive disease process; however, earlier detection of CKD may allow intervention to slow progression and prolong a reasonable quality of life for months to years.
Dr. Hal Schott earned a bachelor’s degree from Cornell in 1980 and a DVM from the Ohio State University in 1984. He worked in a private equine practice in Santa Barbara, Calif., from 1984 to 1987 and followed that with a residency and PhD program at Washington State University from 1987 to 1991. He was on the WSU faculty from 1991 to 1995 as an instructor and then an assistant professor of equine internal medicine. In 1995, he came to Michigan State University as an assistant professor and progressed to associate and then full professor. He is a Diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine.
His clinical interests include all types of urinary tract disease in horses, and his research focuses on fluid and electrolyte physiology, especially with prolonged endurance exercise.
