General Info

A native of Washington State, Dr. Latimer graduated from Washington State University's College of Veterinary Medicine in 1988. After 2 years working in general practice, Dr. Latimer co-founded Northwest Equine Veterinary Associates initiating his career as an equine exclusive practitioner in 1990. The wide variety of cases from lamenesses, lacerations, colics, dystocias, dentistry, sick foals to the most unusual and complex cases provided him with an incredible broad medicine and surgery experience. In the last 14 years though, Dr. Latimer developed a special interest in sports medicine and advanced dentistry dedicating his time and efforts into furthering his knowledge and education into these fields. Through numerous conferences, trainings, individual studying and years of practice Dr. Latimer became an expert in advance lameness evaluations, tendon ultrasonography, and radiographic evaluation of bones and joints. Today due to his sports medicine expertise and renowned reputation he is highly requested by many accomplished equestrian professionals and routinely consults on pre-purchase evaluations of high level performance horses many being imported into the country. Along with his diagnostic skills, Dr. Latimer was one of the first veterinarians in the Northwest to introduce into the field cutting edge technologies such as Shockwave therapy, digital radiography, Stem Cell therapy, IRAP and Platelet Rich Plasma for the diagnosis and treatment of equine sport related injuries. Along with these important lameness related developments, Dr. Latimer has been in the vanguard of advanced dentistry providing his patients with sophisticated power floating, composite restoration of cavities, orthodontic correction ( braces ), and periodontal treatment. Dr. Latimer is famous for his eagerness to share his knowledge and love to teach, he is one of the original veterinarians to participate in the WSU veterinary senior student preceptorship program. Dr. Latimer's spare time is dedicated to his wife and three children, their two lively Jack Russell terriers and spending as many weeks as possible on their family ranch in Montana. Dr. Rothschild is Board Certified by the American College of Veterinary Internal Medicine ( ACVIM ) which means she is an Equine Internal Medicine Specialist. What this really signifies is that she absolutely loves to diagnose and treat sick horses especially colics, neurologic and ophthalmology cases, baby foals, diarrheas, metabolic and hormonal disturbances, ( among many others in this field ) ! She obtained her Veterinarian degree in 1999 and pursued her advanced training at Washington State University Veterinary Teaching Hospital in Pullman from 2001 to 2007 after when she joined Northwest Equine Veterinary Associates. She grew up adoring horses and everything related to them and was involved for many years in horse show jumping, different rodeo modalities and 100-mile endurance training and riding. Dr. Rothschild is from European descent but grew up in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil. During her senior veterinary year she felt the need to further her education, which led her to embark in a wonderful one year journey of preceptorships and trainings at several renowned equine clinics through out the world. Some of those included the Equine Clinic of the Hannover Veterinary School in Germany, the Equine Artificial Insemination Center in Celle Germany, Rossdale & Partners in New Market England, Peter Cronau's Equine Sports Medicine Clinic in Germany, the Veterinary Teaching Hospital at UC Davis California, among others. After obtaining her DVM degree in 1999 she moved to the United States and engaged in an equine internship program in a large private practice in Texas ( Brazos Valley Equine ) dedicated to equine sports medicine, internal medicine and reproduction. After nearly two years there she made the decision to specialize pursuing a 3-year equine internal medicine residency program at Washington State University in
