Dr. Jan Pol Biography

Dr. Jan Pol, known globally as the star of Nat Geo WILD’s hit show "The Incredible Dr. Pol," is a charismatic and dedicated veterinarian whose career spans over five decades. Born and raised on a dairy farm in the Netherlands, he discovered his calling at age twelve while helping deliver piglets. After graduating from Utrecht University’s prestigious veterinary program, he moved to the U.S., where he began his career in rural Michigan. In 1981, he and his wife Diane founded Pol Veterinary Services out of their garage in Weidman, Michigan, which has since grown into a thriving practice with over 25,000 clients.

Dr. Pol’s no-nonsense, hands-on approach and tireless work ethic are showcased in "The Incredible Dr. Pol," where audiences follow him across rural Michigan, treating everything from household pets to 2,600-pound horses. The show’s popularity has led to over 24 seasons and an international fan base, with episodes streaming on major platforms such as Disney+ and Hulu. In 2024, the Pol family launched a spin-off series, "The Incredible Pol Farm," chronicling their effort to build a 350-acre farm from scratch, blending education and entertainment across three generations.

In addition to his television success, Dr. Pol has expanded his influence into consumer products with a branded line of pet foods, treats, accessories, and wellness products available through major retailers like Walmart, Amazon, and Chewy. His best-selling memoir, "Never Turn Your Back on an Angus Cow," co-written with David Fisher, shares heartfelt and humorous anecdotes from his life as a country vet, reminiscent of the beloved stories of James Herriot.

A fierce advocate for farmers, Dr. Pol remains deeply committed to supporting the agricultural community by keeping livestock healthy and farm businesses viable. He’s also passionate about mentoring the next generation through his support of 4-H and Future Farmers of America, believing that caring for animals instills responsibility and compassion in young people.

With his thick Dutch accent, signature mustache, and straightforward charm, Dr. Jan Pol has become an icon not only in his Michigan community but around the world. Whether delivering calves in snowstorms or educating viewers through his shows, he exemplifies dedication, resilience, and a deep love for animals.
