The trainer behind DocDoreen

My name is Doreen Succow, a veterinarian and globetrotter with body and soul. Even during my veterinary medicine studies in Berlin, I was very impressed by the inspiring lecturers. I completed my specialist veterinary training at the clinic for small animals at the University of Leipzig, where I took part in teaching (students, colleagues), also abroad (UNESP, Brazil). My thirst for adventure then took me to the other end of the world (UAE).

There, too, my everyday professional life was determined by the enriching cooperation with national and international students. Back in Germany, I mainly worked as a specialist in imaging diagnostics and internal medicine as well as head of internal training in a private veterinary company. It always makes me happy when former trainees contact me and report on their successes. The idea of ​​”DocDoreen.com” arose on the one hand from the demand for flexible practical courses and on the other hand from my desire to combine the professional with the multicultural.

Thanks to international connections, modern technology and a passion for learning, the possibilities are limitless.

My goal - practical and structured further training

After a comprehensive degree, specialist veterinary training and a very varied career as well as several specialist further training courses, I decided to create DocDoreen. My goal is to offer training and further education in the field of small animal medicine in Germany, Europe and worldwide in order to give many colleagues access to practical training. It is important to pass on knowledge in a structured way and to make it easily accessible.

Why you should work with me? Because I love my job and teaching, which I have always done on the side throughout my veterinary career.

I'm one of the lucky vets who had the chance to work with Doreen. I got to know her as a professional doctor and talented teacher as well as a very special person. Her courses are great - always well prepared, very understandable and practical.

Sarah Anani
Veterinarian

Thanks to Doreen, I was finally able to do ultrasounds on dogs and cats on my own and understand echocardiography better. Dealing with her apprentices is always at eye level. Her nice and relaxed manner took away my fears and gave me more self-confidence. Training with her is just fun.

Maria Apostolidou​
Veterinarian

In the last two years I have had the pleasure of seeing Doreen regularly during two training blocks. In addition to personal competence, she is characterized by a great deal of empathy, passion and love for people and animals. She lives her job as a vocation. The lectures were always very inspiring and gave new impulses for further everyday working life.

Fatma Nur AŞIK
Veterinary medicine student

Doreen is the best mentor I have ever met. During our collaboration with me as an exchange student, she explained everything to me in detail and responded to my feedback. Her friendliness and willingness to pass on her own knowledge were the best things about my time in Germany.
