Congratulations to Dr. Tim Eastman who has been named the PRCA Vet of the Year. Dr. Eastman is the veterinarian of the California Rodeo Salinas.
Dr. Eastman is the chief of surgery at the Steinbeck County Equine Clinic, which he has done for over 25 years.
After winning the award, Dr. Eastman told the PRCA how much it means to him, but also how he couldn’t do it without the help of his staff.
“Out there, at the rodeo, we are just in the shadows, but we have a great crew and if something goes down we have people who can respond to anything. I think you just have to have a good crew of people and equipment ready to go.” Dr. Eastman added, “I have a great committee and I was really honored and very proud of our rodeo to be recognized.”
