Dr. Margit Muller

Dr. Muller is a veterinarian and the Director of the Falcon Hospital in Abu Dhabi - the world’s leading Falcon Hospital. Dr. Muller has dedicated her life to the care of Falcons - in addition to her duties at the hospital she performs emergency surgeries at all times of the day and night, saving countless birds in the process. Dr. Muller’s research in Abu Dhabi led her to find a cure for a disease found in falcons called Brotzul, which is now registered by the World Health Organization. She was also instrumental in preventing the spread of Avian Flu within the UAE. She has accompanied numerous delegations to countries including Iran, Kazakhstan and Pakistan to oversee the release of falcons into the wild. Dr. Muller specializes in over 20 medical procedures and has published dozens of books and articles. She also dedicates her time to working with falconers, teaching them how to best look after their animals. In raising awareness through her published articles, participation in conferences and by offering guided tours of the hospital, Dr. Muller hopes to create greater understanding of the Falcon’s important role in Abu Dhabi’s cultural heritage.
