The
Support Team
Please take a moment to learn a little
bit more about the people who help Elisabeth and Olivier every
day to make sure they are performing their best.
Madeleine Austin is responsible for bringing both Elisabeth
and Olivier into this world. She has trained Elisabeth from the
beginning, all the way through Grand Prix. She has offered an
unbelievable amount of financial and emotional support, as well
as helped Elisabeth to make important decisions along the way.
Without her support, nothing would be possible. Thank you.
Dr. Philip Van Harreveld has been Olivier's primary veterinarian
since he was a youngster. Dr. Van Harreveld has helped to make
sure Olivier is in top condition for training and competing.
He has also been a huge fan of Olivier for as long as he's known
him. You can learn more about Dr. Phil and his practice at Vermont
Large Animal Clinic.
Dr. Jee Grewal is Elisabeth's veterinarian in
Florida. Dr. Jee is a brilliant vet and has been ever
supportive with any questions, concerns or comments Elisabeth has
had. He is not only a skilled surgeon but he is also a top
notch lameness expert and puts a great deal of care and thought into
his work. It has been an honor and a pleasure working with
him.
Lee Beckwith is responsible for Olivier's farrier work
and has decades of experience shoeing top show horses. Lee
has been working with Olivier on and off since he was a foal,
and we have now designated him Olivier's full-time farrier. If you would like more information
on Lee, please E-mail
Elisabeth.
James Gilchrist is Olivier's farrier for the
Florida season. He is a "farrier to the stars" one could say
and has hundreds of top level dressage horses and jumpers on his
list of clientele. It goes without saying that he is a
brilliant farrier, but he is also an incredibly nice guy and ever
patient with the horses.
Sal Salvetti has been responsible for Olivier's massage work
as often as we can get him for the last few years. Sal is often
busy traveling with the United States Equestrian Team, or working
with clients all over the United States, but when we have the
chance, Olivier loves to see him. For more information on Sal's
work, please visit his website at SalMassage.com
