Glasgow Forge Vets4Pets

I was born and brought up in Glasgow and attended Glasgow University Veterinary School. I graduated in 2004 so I have over a decade of experience in small animal practice. After graduation I spent a year as an intern in a referral practice in Essex before moving into first opinion practice in London. I spent the majority of my time in London working for a hospital-based practice where my duties included looking after the Metropolitan police dogs of south London. After leaving London I worked for 2 years in Aberdeen running a branch practice for a large veterinary group. After leaving Aberdeen I spent a year working and traveling in Australia and New Zealand before returning home to open the Glasgow Forge practice. We have now been open for two years and the surgery is just continuing to grow and expand which has been great to oversee. I live in Glasgow with my wife Sarah (we recently got married in Iceland September 2016). Also at home is my geriatric 3-legged rescue cat called Cheeky who features in the practice photos. We also have some new additions to the family…a ginger rescue cat called Grettir (Icelandic name for the famous Garfield), Sylvester and Larry. I enjoy the variety of small animal first opinion practice but I particularly enjoy discussing preventative health care with owners and dealing with skin cases. I am currently studying a master’s degree in ‘Advanced Clinical Practice’ part-time at the University of Edinburgh.

Hello,

I'm Amelia, one of the Vets at Vets4Pets Glasgow Forge.

I moved up to Glasgow from North Wales for Vet School and haven't left since! I graduated in 2023 and have loved getting to know lots of our clients here in the past few months.

In my spare time, I enjoy reading and visiting family nearby - I haven't got a fury friend of my own yet, but that's a matter of time!

Hi,

I graduated from the University of Las Palmas de Gran Canaria, where I also completed a Masters Degree in Veterinary Medicine and Therapeutics Research. Soon after, I moved to the UK to work as a first opinion vet in London for 2 years before embarking on a Rotating Internship at a referral centre. Following my experience as an Emergency/ night vet in a busy referral hospital back in Spain, I returned to the UK to undertake a specific internship in internal medicine, which I completed this year.

I love all aspects of veterinary medicine, but I particular interest enjoy feline and canine medicine, as well as preventive medicine

In my spare time, I enjoy going out with friends, practicing free diving, and spending quality time with my rescue dog, Niwa.

My name is Lynne. I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2000 while working at the Glasgow

Hi! Im Rosanna and I have been working at the Forge Vets4Pets in various roles since 2017 and qualified as a registered veterinary nurse in 2022. I don't currently have any pets in Glasgow but I have a 15 year old family Labrador back home who over the years has made an appearance as the reception dog who some of you may remember! I love all aspects of working as an RVN and am interested in completing further certificates in the future to expand my knowledge and experience but for now I'm happy just enjoying my job with all your lovely pets! 

Hi! I’m Nicole one of the nurses here at Vets4pets. I started my veterinary nursing course back in 2018, I have been working within the practice since 2019 where I had started as a student on placement to complete my final year. Following the conclusion of my final student year I was lucky enough to be offered a job. I love my job, being able to care for animals is something that really interests me plus my colleagues & team are amazing to work with.

At home I have two family Staffies called Lucy and Belle. We have recently just taken on a rescue dog who needed a lot of attention and training but is now fitting in great with the other dogs! Caring for animals has always been a passion of mine, The thing I love the most is that every day is different. I am looking forward to continuing my career here as a Registered Veterinary Nurse.

Hi,

I’ve recently joined Glasgow Forge Vets4Pets.

I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2003. My main interests were anesthesia and surgical cases. Over the years, I have enjoyed varied roles within the veterinary profession progressing into team leadership and management where I enjoy helping to support others.

Being new here to Glasgow Forge Vets4Pets is a perfect opportunity to continue to build a great team, while continually looking at delivering the best practice and service possible for our clients.
