Why are we "Arrow 5"?
Arrow 5 was Dr. Bryant's maternal grandfathers brand. He owned a 1800 acre cattle ranch in Lake County, Florida. Paul retained the brand for his personal cattle and horses. His grandfather hated veterinarians, so Paul's tribute to him was to name his veterinary practice after him! His grandfather's favorite saying about veterinarians was "Vets bury their mistakes and charge you for it!". We are doing our best to change this reputation.
Dr. Paul Bryant
Dr. Bryant was born and raised in Ocala, Fl. He received his bachelors in 1997 and doctorate in 2001 both from the University of Florida. He moved to Okeechobee upon graduation to work as a mixed animal veterinarian. In 2014, he started Arrow 5 Equine as a solo practitioner limiting the practice to horses and beef cattle.
His son Dalton was born in 2006 and is currently attending UCF. He and his wife Courtney were married in 2022 (which was a very long time coming!). Together they enjoy raising quarter horses, hunting, and offshore fishing. His veterinary interests include primary medicine and minor surgery on all disciplines of horses. Dr. Bryant’s cattle practice is predominantly herd health and management. He strongly believes in preventative medicine and utilizes practical applications. |
