Lance Yohe, CJF, is the new farrier for the UC Davis veterinary hospital's Large Animal Clinic, according to an article published on the UC Veterinary Medicine website by writer Rob Warren.
The article states that Yohe has been a farrier for more than 30 years. He completed his vocational education at the Eastern School of Farriery in 1993 and became a Certified Farrier (2014) and a Certified Journeyman Farrier (2015) through the American Farrier's Association (AFA).
Warren goes on to say that Yohe has been an active member of AFA since 2008, served as the regional director from 2017-23 and was on their executive board from 2017-22. The new hire also served as director and vice president of the Western States Farrier Association from 2008-16. Prior to joining the UC Davis team, Yohe ran Keystone Farrier Services since 1993.
The UC Davis piece also explains that in addition to providing comprehensive hoof care, including trimming and shoeing, Yohe will work with the UC Davis veterinary team to assess and address hoof-related issues affecting a horse's health.
