Timeline

The show celebrated its 100th episode in March 2017. Recently Dr. Pol's hit Dutch show, "In de Voetsporen van Dr. Pol," (In Dr. Pol's Footsteps) aired on RTL4 to an average viewership of 1. 1M viewers out of 9 million households- an immense audience in the Netherlands - and performing slightly higher than "The Incredible Dr. Pol"! The popular series followed a group of Dutch veterinarians vying to be Dr. Pol's newest apprentice. From the pivotal moment at age twelve when he helped deliver a litter of piglets and knew he wanted to become a vet, to the incredible moments captured on his hit TV show, Dr. Pol has amassed a wealth of stories of what it's like caring for a menagerie of animals. The lovable veterinarian and now author shares his vast experience and lively anecdotes in his hit book, NEVER TURN YOUR BACK ON AN ANGUS COW, that he has written with David Fisher. Reminiscent of the classic books of James Herriot such as "All Creatures Great and Small," Dr. Pol's memoir is charming, fascinating and delightful to animal lovers everywhere. As the youngest of six children growing up in the Netherlands, the pre-doctorate Jan Pol lived among dairy cows, sheep, pigs, chickens, geese, turkeys, rabbits, dogs and Friesian horses.

In April 2015, the Michigan Licensing and Regulatory Association (LARA) found Pol in violation for his treatment and care of that dog. His sentencing was overturned, however, by the Michigan Court of Appeals, which reversed and remanded, holding inter alia that there was no competent evidence that there was a breach of the standard of care. The judge cited a lack of evidence in LARA's decision and was perplexed by the fact there was even a complaint filed. He stated that “the owners of the dog were happy with the care it has been given,” calling the previous decision by the subcommittee "arbitrary and capricious".

In 2014 a complaint was filed by a viewer alleging that Pol had not worn proper surgical attire including a head cap and gown during his treatment and care in May 2011 of a Boston terrier that had been hit by a car. The owners had been happy with the animal's treatment, and there were no complications. On 26 March 2014 a disciplinary subcommittee of the Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine had decided to fine Dr. Pol $500 and put his license on probation for not complying with standards of care required by the state. Pol was also ordered to complete an educational course.

In 2013, Michigan Speaker of the House Kevin Cotter sponsored House Bill 5176, seeking to prohibit authorities from investigating reports of misconduct or allegations “based upon information obtained from viewing the broadcast of a reality program.” Dr. Pol testified in favor of the bill. It was referred to the House Health Policy Committee in December 2013, died in committee, and has not been re-introduced.

Charles has worked in Hollywood in the entertainment industry, and in 2011 he convinced his father to allow him and his filmmaker friends to do a documentary on Dr. Pol, which ultimately led to the concept for the television series, "The Incredible Dr. Pol. "A firm believer in spaying and neutering animals, Dr. Pol continues to be active with his local philanthropic organizations 4-H and FFA (Future Farmers of America), non-profit charities that help teach young adults how to take proper care of animals. He believes that children who are taught to take care of animals at a young age make better adults. Dr. Pol is an avid car collector.

Eager to begin his own practice, he and his wife Diane started their own animal clinic, Pol Veterinary Services, in Weidman, Michigan in 1981, out of their garage. The business continued to grow and they, along with their 10 employees, have serviced hundreds of thousands of patients since opening their doors. An expert in large farm animals and a true friend of the farmer, Dr. Pol works passionately to ensure that the diminishing population of family farmers remains in business. And he plays an integral role in keeping farmers' livestock healthy and their businesses profitable. With his down and dirty approach to veterinary medicine, Dr. Pol routinely comes to the rescue, taking on cases that are vital to the community's livelihood, ranging from checking a cow for pregnancy to helping a goat with pneumonia, to saving the career of a young racehorse with a severely wounded leg, to treating a rabbit with overgrown teeth. "In this business, it is totally unpredictable what you're going to get, day to day. Animals don't wait to get sick, and they don't take appointments. So, some days you're gonna go in, and there's gonna be nothing going on. And other days, you're gonna go in, and you can't run fast enough," offers Dr. Pol. Dr. Pol's son Charles was his constant sidekick as a child and helped in the clinic and on farm calls starting at the age of 5. Although he knew from an early age that he didn't want to follow in his father's professional footsteps, Charles has great admiration for his father and his work.

Possessing brains, wit and charm, Dr. Pol has been treating pets and livestock in rural Michigan since the 1970s and is a pioneer in his field. He has more than 23,000 clients, and his patients range from white mice and snakes to cows and 2,600-pound horses - and everything in between. In "The Incredible Dr. Pol," viewers have the opportunity to travel with Dr. Pol across rural Michigan, as he tirelessly cares for every family pet and herd of livestock in need of his expertise and kindness. Unflappable and unstoppable, Dr. Pol routinely puts in 14-hour days making farm calls and treating patients in his very busy clinic.

An enthusiastic and naturally inclined scholar, he graduated from the prestigious Utrecht University Veterinary program in 1970 and began his career working for a local vet in Harbor Beach, Michigan.
