Phyllis Lose
When she graduated Lose opened the first woman-owned and woman-run horse veterinary clinic. Lose was the first woman to build an equine surgical hospital. She is also the first woman horse doctor in the United States. She was the third woman to have a horse trainer license in the United States as well. She developed many different methods and new types of medicines to help perform more successful surgeries on horses. For example, Lose Lose doesn’t like to use steroids to relax muscles in hurt horses, which is a very common thing to do with other vets.
