Mary Holder

Lead Veterinary Surgeon

I joined the practice in May 2021 and worked alongside Shamrock’s previous partners for a few months before taking the reins in August 2021. In my spare time I love being outside. I enjoy hillwalking, gardening, caving, camping and trips to the seaside. I live with my husband, son and our two wonderful Maine Coon’s named George and Rose. I graduated from Edinburgh University with distinction in 2008 and then in 2015 I completed an RCVS certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice focusing on small animal medicine. I’ve worked in small animal practices in Berkshire, Northamptonshire and West Yorkshire before settling in the Harrogate area in 2015. I enjoy all aspects of small animal general practice, including performing surgeries, diagnosing and treating complex medical cases and the general care of dogs, cats and small mammals. I like to get to know my patients and work together with their owners to give them the best possible quality of life.

I joined the practice in October 2023 and I am enjoying getting to practice veterinary medicine while in the early stages of my career. I grew up in Spain and graduated from the University of Murcia, before moving back to the UK. I am passionate about all areas of small animal veterinary medicine, with a particular interest in developing my knowledge and skills in surgery, internal medicine and ultrasonography. In my free time I enjoy long walks out in nature with my dog Oddie, as well as cuddling up on the sofa with my cat Mr Beans. I am excited to continue forming a relationship with my patients and clients, while learning and progressing within my field as a Veterinary Surgeon.

Head Veterinary Nurse

I joined the practice in 2021 after 6 years’ experience in a busy animal hospital. I qualified in 2019 after retraining from a level 3 nurse practitioner. I live with my young son, Luke and a menagerie of pets, I have Raven and Hazel as my loyal dogs, I successfully rescued Hazel many years ago. My two cats, Nusura and Lollie provide lots of cuddles at the end of the day, though not very cuddly but very interesting, my mini zoo is complete with Leo the Leopard Gecko. When not working I have my head in a gripping historical book or exploring the Yorkshire moors with my dogs finding new routes and often getting lost. I have an interest in surgery and the monitoring and recovery of anaesthesia and wish to advance my career within this area.

I joined Shamrock over 20 years ago as a Client Care Assistant, during that time I trained to become a Patient Care Assistant where my previous experience of processing laboratory samples proved invaluable. With my experience I am often called on to assist in many areas of the practice. In my spare time I enjoy social activities with friends, keeping fit by walking my two dogs, Maddie and Luna. I am particularly proud of taking myself out of my comfort zone and completing the Three Peaks.

In the 25 years I've owned polecats/ferrets, Medivet is the best. The veterinarian was knowledgeable, understood Alfred's needs and respected me as an AuDHD person! I can't recommend them enough. Thank you for looking after Alfred and me, I'll catch up when he's due for an implant. 💚

Medivet Harrogate, Knaresborough Road, look after my cat who was diagnosed as hyperthyroid last year. She was medicated and stabilised well. We made the decision to have a bilateral thyroidectomy performed. The whole team, including the Wetherby hyperthyroid cat centre, have been caring for her, and my family. Taking time to explain and discuss and help us make this decision. Tallulah is now well and at her follow-up she has been found to have become hypothyroid. She is now commencing on thyroxine. The staff are so caring and friendly, helping me to navigate the insurence claim. They offer options to treatment and treat us amembers of the team too.
