Once he completed the DVM program at the University of Utrecht, Jan and his now-wife Diane, moved to Harbor Beach, Michigan in the USA, where he started looking for a career start, and found a place for himself as an assistant for an already proven veterinarian in Harbor Beach. Jan spent more than 10 years in service of this veterinarian when he decided it was a time for a step forward. He and his wife moved to Weidman, Michigan, where he started his own veterinarian clinic, Pol Veterinary Services in 1981.
Rise to Prominence
Continual Success
Since starting his practice, Jan has accumulated more than 22,000 client; though he had some problems with animal owners, including being sued for maltreatment, which jeopardized his license, he managed to settle everything outside the court, and the cases were dropped. His show suffered criticism too, and there was a petition for its cancelation, but Pol overcame all the issues and has most recently finished shooting the 12th season.
