I graduated from the Faculty of Agricultural Sciences and Veterinary Medicine Cluj-Napoca, Romania in 2024. During my studies I have completed an internship at the emergency hospital of the university and took part in study and traineeship mobilities in Poland and Hungary to gain new experiences and to enhance my clinical skills. I did my thesis in the field of internal medicine on the metabolic disturbances of dogs. In my spare time I enjoy cooking, cycling, hiking and going to the cinema. I have recently joined the team at Roston Drive as a graduate veterinary surgeon.

Claire

Head Surgical Veterinary Nurse

I have always had an interest in veterinary work originating from a farming background and took a student nurse position in a mixed practice in Leicestershire in 2003. I qualified in 2007 as a registered veterinary nurse (RVN) and decided to take locum roles in referral centres and small animal general practices all over the country. I worked at the animal charity PDSA for 10 years during which time I completed my diploma in advanced veterinary nursing (DipAVN) and graduated from Myerscough School of Veterinary Nursing in 2015. After this I worked as a volunteer abroad for 2 animal charities in Greece. In 2019, I took a head nurse role within Medivet for 3 years. I currently work within the nursing team at Medivet Roston Drive as head of the surgical department which is where my passion lies. Outside of work, I enjoy keeping tropical fish, walking, swimming and baking cakes.

Abbey

Consulting Veterinary Nurse

After working for the Retired Greyhound Trust as a teenager, it inspired me to move into a career as a veterinary nurse in 2015. I started working in a veterinary hospital, before moving into a first opinion practice, before finally settling as a Consultation Nurse which is where my passion lies. I enjoy speaking to clients and working with them to help provide the best possible care for their pets.

Sarah

Practice Manager

I have always been interested in the veterinary profession with carrying out work experience at Roston Drive back in 2004!! I then moved to the then Fairfield vets (Leicester Road) where I stayed for 10 years!! I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse back in 2012 after completing my BSc (HONS) degree. After a few years, I gained my certificate in Emergency and Critical Care and worked nights in an emergency hospital which I thoroughly enjoyed!! These days you will find me at either Medivet Hinckley Roston Drive, Leicester Road or Coventry Road as practice manager.

Sarah

Client Care Assistant

I started my career as a veterinary receptionist in March 2017 working at Vets4Pets in Hinckley where I became Head Receptionist. I really enjoyed my role there but left in 2021 to work at Bell, Brown & Bentley vets as they offered me set hours. Whilst at Bell, Brown & Bentley I completed the Bronze, Silver & Gold BVRA award and became an Associate Veterinary receptionist. I moved to Medivet Roston Drive in May 2023 as it’s much closer to where I live and I can walk to work. I love working as part of the Medivet Roston Drive Team and meeting all the pets and their owners. In my spare time I enjoy walking, spending time with my 4 grandchildren and looking after our 4 cats and a dog.
