We are devastated and shattered by the unexpected passing of our friend and colleague in Ecuador, Dr Diego Barrera Villarroel. Diego was THE mover and shaker in the veterinary world and the key driver of the spay/neuter movement in Ecuador, plus a huge voice for all animals. His infectious personality and ability to make all people feel like family, are part of what made him special. He has brought so many young veterinarians into the world of spay/neuter and his teachings will go on long after his departure in the many people
he taught and touched. Diego was a hero and will be so greatly missed. We will continue our annual campaigns in Ecuador in his honor 💜💜💜Our hearts are broken in a thousand pieces but his life's work will carry on. Fly high friend!
