Dr. Philippe Coudrai received a Master’s degree in Biology in 1984, and his Doctorate in Veterinary Medicine from the University of Pennsylvania in 1989. For the 10 years prior to opening Winslow Animal Hospital, he gained valuable medical and surgical experience working in 24-hour full-service and emergency hospitals. He has focused much of his attention since 1991 in orthopedic surgery, and has attended post-graduate education in orthopedics offered at The Ohio State University, The University of Pennsylvania, and Texas A & M. Since 1996, Dr. Coudrai has operated a veterinary orthopedic referral service (non-specialty), performing approximately 200 orthopedic surgical procedures annually for over 30 area hospitals from Burlington County to Cape May. In 2003, Dr. Coudrai became certified to take PennHip X-rays to detect hip dysplasia in puppies as young as four months of age. He also has an interest in Veterinary Dentistry, and attended courses at the Animal Dental Training Center in Maryland to improve his skills in extensive surgical dental extractions and root canal therapy. His memberships include the Veterinary Orthopedic Society, Eastern Veterinary Orthopedic Society, American Animal Hospital Association, American Veterinary Medical Association, New Jersey Veterinary Medical Association, and the Southern New Jersey Veterinary Medical Association. Dr. Coudrai has passed licensing examinations in New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Florida. His two cats, Jack and Binky, can be found walking the halls of Winslow Animal Hospital after hours.
Dr. Coudrai was a resident of Winslow Township from 1990-2002, and now resides in nearby Washington Township. He and his wife Lee, have been married since 1983. They have 2 sons, John-Michael and Eric. Away from the hospital, Dr. Coudrai’s passion (2nd to family) is skiing with his sons, who are already skiing the black diamonds!
