Having qualified as a vet from Edinburgh in 1996, I spent four and a half years in a mixed practice in Cumbria before starting the Leamington Spa practice in December 2000. I’m a Centre Veterinary Surgeon for the Guide Dogs’ National Breeding Centre and have a keen interest in cardio-respiratory conditions of dogs and cats. I’m also interested in minimally invasive (keyhole) surgery and have gained the General Practitioners certificate in Endoscopy and Endosurgery. I recently earnt a further GP Certificate in Emergency Medicine and Surgery.

Following graduation from Cambridge University in 2009, I worked in mixed practice until 2013 when I joined the Leamington Spa team, having developed a bias towards small animal practice. My main interests include dentistry and diagnostic imaging; I recently developed my expertise in this area by gaining a GP certificate in Diagnostic Imaging.

I graduated in 2005 from the Royal Veterinary College and went straight into mixed practice where I remained for five years. I then spent seven years at a small animal charity where I developed an interest in surgery while undertaking an MSc in Applied Animal Behaviour. Since coming to Medivet in August 2017, I have continued developing my interests further and have enjoyed learning keyhole spays. I am a cat advocate as part of the Cat Friendly Clinic accreditation scheme at Medivet Leamington Spa.

Having graduated as a vet in Liverpool University in 2004 , I spent my first 6 years in mixed practice in Yorkshire then South Worcestershire - both jobs having considerable on-call duties alongside busy daytimes. I then became a small animal day vet in Redditch for 5 years, starting the practice with ultrasonography and chemotherapy as well as honing my general surgical and medical knowledge. I became a night vet in South Wales for 5 years and have enjoyed emergency and critical care ever since. I joined Leamington Spa in the summer of 2020 as a night vet and relish a variety of cases.

I joined the Leamington Spa hospital right after being qualified as a vet from the University of Glasgow in 2020. I have since then continued developing my professional skills as a vet with the guidance of my fellow colleagues. My main interests include emergency and critical care and surgery. In the future, I am planning to expand my knowledge in emergency medicine and gain a post-graduate certificate in this field.

I qualified as a vet nurse in a mixed practice in 2005 and have been head vet nurse for the last eight years. I have a keen interest in medical nursing and emergency and critical care. I gained my Diploma in Advanced Veterinary nursing from Harper Adams University in 2018. My typical day consists of looking after the Leamington nursing team, student training and making sure the vets are supplied with nursing support and copious amounts of coffee and cake. At home I have a black labrador, a jack russell terrier and two horses.

I studied Animal Care at Moreton Morrell College and Animal Behaviour and Welfare at Plymouth University. I’ve also volunteered at the National Marine Aquarium, working with turtles, sharks and a very friendly octopus, as well as an Australian wildlife sanctuary, raising and releasing a pair of joeys. I have a keen interest in small animals and find reptiles fascinating. I’m currently studying to be a vet nurse and love working in the hospital. I have two cats at home called Ralph and Rocky who are complete opposites but very special in their own way. I am a cat advocate as part of the Cat Friendly Clinic accreditation scheme at Medivet Leamington Spa.

I joined the veterinary industry in 2014 after graduating from the University of Nottingham with a degree in Zoology. I've always had a great admiration for animals and their loyalty towards their human companions. I began working as a receptionist at the Kenilworth practice, but now work a combination of reception and administration between the Kenilworth and Leamington Spa 24 Hour practices. At home I have an English Springer Spaniel called Milo, who takes his role as a springer very seriously. We enjoy running together followed by snuggles on the sofa.

I joined the veterinary sector in 2021 and although my background is hospitality, I have always wanted to work with animals. I have a rescue dog called Max who loves nothing more than cuddles and belly rubs and in our spare time we love going on long walks and playing with squeaky toys.

After reading reviews and speaking with someone on the phone, I drove 45 minutes for emergency care for my dog. After being told his heart rate was 200 and that he needed to go on a drip straight away, I was then refused care as I couldn’t pay £600 up front, even though I showed my insurance details so they could see it would be covered in full. My dog is now touch and go after having to find another nearby vet 20 minutes away. I’m praying he is ok, and that will be no thanks to a vet that cares more about the money than the animals. The vet in question was cold and not at all personable or caring in nature. I will be taking this further once I have dealt with whatever the outcome will be for my dog.

My cocker spaniel girl had a litter of 9 on july this year. Noticing one of them started to feel off after 6 days of life(trouble breathing) I rang Medivet, which mentioned we should come with the puppy ASAP so it won’t be too late. Rushed there with the pup just to be told they “are not fully equipped to treat such young animals”. So she just gave the pup an injection with antibiotic saying that there is not much to be done and to expect the worst to happen. We left the practice with 105£ on minus, just so the little girl to struggle and choke in her own blood until the next afternoon when we decided to put her sleep and cremate her. Why have we even been called to the practice if they already knew they are unequipped for 6 days old puppies? Of course, money matters the most. Terribly unhappy with this vet.

Nearly 1 year ago our dog went lame on his front leg….. we took him to this practice, where following and initial consultation the vet advised an x-ray and warned us that it looked like cancer!! That evening was awful!! The following morning we took him for his x-ray, dreading the outcome!! Mid morning my wife took a call from the vet, IT’S CANCER!!! and given his age, arthritic hips, amputation isn’t an option. We were also told that a further scan wasn’t needed they were so sure of their diagnosis and that it would only confirm their findings, we were advised that euthanasia was the kindest option, so we asked if we could bring him home that evening to prepare ourselves and say goodbye, the vet agreed to bring him round from his anaesthetic. We then spent that day distraught and making plans to have him euthanised at home the following day. That evening we took a call from our regular mobile vet who had looked at his X-ray and advised us to seek a second opinion as it did not look like cancer and given his history with arthritis It was more likely to be the problem. The next day we took him a specialist where they reviewed the X-ray and confirmed our mobile vets findings!!! We then got a 3rd opinion and once again were told it was likely arthritis! He then began treatment for this, medication, aqua therapy, acupuncture. Nearly 1 year on he is living his best life, probably happy to be alive, he is still having treatment for his arthritic hips but he runs and plays like any dog of his age (10) so the moral of this story is not to take the first diagnosis, seek a second and third opinion….. IT MIGHT JUST SAVE YOUR DOGS LIFE!!! Needless to say we have never been back to this practice.

Would highly recommend. Staff were very kind and friendly. Very compassionate and helpful with advice for pet care. I think the treatment was very reasonable priced, had a very enjoyable first experience with this vet practice and looking forward to ongoing care and treatment to be provided from this practice
