Dr. André Escobar has completed his veterinary degree at Federal University of Minas Gerais (2005), and his masters (2007) and PhD (2010) at Sao Paulo State University (UNESP) in Brazil. During five years (2011-2016), he worked as a professor of Veterinary Anesthesia in two different Universities in Brazil, including UNESP, where he was also a post-doc researcher. In 2019, he completed his residency program in Veterinary Anesthesia at the University of Georgia.
Dr. Escobar is board certified by the Brazilian College of Veterinary Anesthesia (2012) and by the American College of Veterinary Anesthesia and Analgesia (2022). His main research focus is anesthesia in avian species.
