West Bromwich Vets4Pets

I qualified from the Royal Veterinary College London in 2003. I worked in the Birmingham area in small animal practice for 2 years before I began locuming all over the UK to gain experience. I then worked and travelled around Australia and New Zealand for two and a half years - this was an amazing experience which allowed me to gain invaluable insight into differing clinical practices.

I enjoy being a vet general practitioner, especially the close interaction and relationship between vet and patient. I love providing an excellent service to all my clients and patients - both old and new.

Outside of work I am a sports enthusiast, love to read and am also a movie buff. I share my home with my hyperactive puppy who is called Jumpy and I also have several goats, ducks, chickens, a rabbit, a tortoise and a cat called Steve.

I was born and raised in a beautiful city on the sea in Sicily, Italy and I graduated from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Bologna in October 2018. After graduation I volunteered at a vet clinic in my home town, and then I decided to move to the UK to test myself in a different country. Only one month after arriving in the UK, my dream came true when I started working with an amazing and professional team like Companion Care / Vets4Pets.

I am very passionate about my job, and I have a particular interest in endocrinology, and soft tissue surgery. I am in the process of doing an advanced, post-graduate certificate in small animal surgery. I am also a clinical coach to our student nurses, helping to train & assess them.

During my free time I love travelling, reading, and, being an Italian, I love cooking for my friends! But more than anything else, I dedicate my free time to Gina, my beloved little maltese dog!

I was born & raised in Alicante, in Spain. I studied veterinary medicine in Galicia, where I graduated from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in 2019. During university, I volunteered & worked inside two veterinary referral hospitals of small and exotic animals.

I love to travel and meet other cultures and I have always loved the UK. Joining this team meant I could join my two passions by working as a veterinary surgeon in the UK. I am currently in the process of doing an advanced, post-graduate certificate in ultrasound imaging.

Outside of work, I love to read, watch movies, and I enjoy playing tennis. I also have a rescue dog & rescue cat called Iker and Neus, and I love spending time playing with them!

I was born & raised in Plovdiv, a beautiful a historical city located in south-central Bulgaria. I gained my Masters degree in veterinary medicine at Trakia University in November 2017.

During my student years, I had the opportunity to gain experience as a trainee in several small animal practices in Bulgaria. I also had the chance to participate in 2 practical Erasmus exchange programs in Hungary and Slovakia. After my graduation, I worked in a small animal veterinary clinic in my home city for a year and then decided to move to the UK, guided by my eagerness to further improve myself. I am in the process of doing an advanced, post-graduate certificate in small animal surgery.

I grew up surrounded by animals and my love for them is endless. I am particularly fond of rabbits and foxes. During my leisure time, I like to travel, and I enjoy walking in forests with my rescued Belgian Malinois Shepherd cross, called Ezo.

I was born in Romania, and from childhood I was fascinated by animals. I studied veterinary medicine in Bucharest, where I graduated in 2007. During the studies, I had the opportunity to work in different veterinary clinics, mostly dealing with small animals; this helped me to test my theoretical knowledge and improve my practical skills. After graduation, IU provided voluntary veterinary assistance to an animal protection NGO, whilst working at the same time in the field of animal health & welfare.

With a strong motivation to return to clinical roles, I decided to move to the UK and try my best to do so, and luckily this came true when I was given the chance to join this team. I like to constantly improve my knowledge and I always enjoy challenges

I was born in Poland. Since I remember I’ve always been into biology, especially when it comes to zoology and medicine. I’ve also had a great connection with animals and met many other pet lovers as well. All of these things combined helped me decide to begin my career as a veterinarian. I’ve always wanted to work with a team of amazing people who are very passionate about helping animals

I graduated from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in University of Wroclaw in 2020. Afterwards I moved to UK and started my work in veterinary practices for small animals.

I  am especially interested in gastroenterology and dermatology, as well as care and treatment of brachycephalic dogs, like French bulldogs.

Speaking of Frenchies, I have got two little princesses, Lola and Mela, which I love very much. My hobbies are also reading books, electronics and travels.

I was born in Turin, a gorgeous city at the foot of the Italian Alps. I always had a passion and curiosity about science, particularly about animals. This led me to get a graduation in Veterinary Medicine in 2019. After that I had the opportunity to improve my knowledge and practical skills in a small animals hospital in Ferrara. At the end of 2020 I decided to move to the UK, because I thought it was a great opportunity for my career and my personal growth. Here I was able to gain experience in the public health and animal welfare field. Moreover, I have met many friendly people from UK and all over the world, sharing with them our culture and knowledge. Nevertheless my main interest is focused on the pets clinic, and thanks to the Vets4Pets family I have the chance to merge my passion and my job. The fields of veterinary medicine that more attract me are the Soft Tissues Surgery and the Clinical Pathology.

I have a small black mixed breed dog, named Pepe. He is always ready to welcome me when I have the opportunity to come back in Italy. In the spare time, I like to travel, participate in cultural events, and spend time with my friends and relatives (especially in front of a board game and a cup of tea).

I was born and raised in Lublin, a big student city in Poland. I graduated from the Faculty of Veterinary Medicine of Lublin in April 2022 and straight after that I moved to the UK where I started to work for Vets4Pets.

I always wanted to do something that matters and will allow me to help others, considering the fact I love animals I don’t think there is a better life choice for me. I’ve got a keen interest in soft tissue surgery and Vets4Pets is a great place to get both practical experience and the theory needed to become the best in my field.

During my free time I love cooking for everyone, reading books, playing video games and going to music festivals. I’ve got young rescue kitten named Bułka, to whom I devote my free time and money!

After graduating from the Royal Veterinary College in 2003, I started my veterinary career working at the Greater Manchester RSCPA Animal Hospital. It was here that I developed a passion for small animal surgery. After three years I travelled further afield, working in Queensland Australia. Along with pursuing my interest in surgery, it was not uncommon to be presented with more exotic creatures including fruit bats and opossums. 

In 2014 I attained my MRCVS accredited certificate in Small Animal Surgery. Over the last 12 months, I have transitioned from an in-house surgical role in North Yorkshire to that of a mobile surgeon - this involves performing surgical procedures at a number of different practices throughout the north of England. 

I have a keen interest in both orthopaedic and soft tissue surgical cases. I visit the Vets4Pets and Companion Care clinics regularly to perform specialist orthopaedic and soft tissue surgeries.

I graduated from the University of Northampton in 2012 with a Bachelor of Science Honours degree in Applied Animal Studies, and then started working at Companion Care/Vets4Pets in early 2013.

During my time at the practice, I have been involved in a variety of roles - from reception to nursing - and I have now progressed to my current role as the overall manager of our 3 branches. My role largely involves administration duties, overseeing insurance claims, and the general running of the practice, but I do also play a large role in the nursing of patients.

I have a keen interest in dog behaviour & training. I have a particular soft spot for spaniels, collies, cats, and guinea pigs. My family currently have a rescue dog called Molly who is a 10 year-old Springer Spaniel cross Collie (pictured with me here). I also own 4 rescue cats and 3 guinea pigs!

I have been working for our practice since 2016 & I am thoroughly enjoying my time here. I have always been very animal-orientated and aspired to work in the veterinary sector. Back in 2012 I completed a Level 3 diploma in Animal Management.

I started my role in early 2016 as a receptionist; I wanted to grow further in the clinic and soon progressed onto Head Receptionist. After a short while, I started to gain more knowledge on administration duties, insurance and general practice running. By the end of 2017 I took on the role of Practice Manager, which I thoroughly take pride in.

As for my personal life, I have always been surrounded by very much loved pets. I currently have a very handsome rabbit called Paprika. We also have three family dogs - Stan and Bailey the British Bulldogs, as well as Precious the tiny, one-eyed French Bulldog!

I have recently completed a diploma in Veterinary Nurse at Solihull College, and am now a fully registered veterinary nurse (RVN).

I have owned a variety of pets throughout my childhood and currently have a naughty 7 year old Yorkshire terrier named Bella. She is the biggest diva I know but makes me laugh every day. I also love travelling to new countries and making memories with family and friends. I have seen some amazing places so far and hope to travel to Australia one day!

I have recently graduated from my animal management HND at Halesowen college and joined the receptionist team. 

I've loved animals since a young age and have always grown up with them, especially dogs. I have a particular interest in orthopaedic issues and have worked as canine hydrotherapy assistant in the past.

I currently have 3 Border collies - Rolo, Storm, and Bob, and I also occasionally foster some rescue dogs if needed. In my spare time I train and compete in dog agility and love being active with my dogs. 

I am so excited to meet all of your wonderful pets and look forward to seeing you all soon!

I am a first year student veterinary nurse. I am loving my placement here at West Bromwich Vets4Pets and I have learnt so much already with such a great team! I couldn't imagine myself working in any other career than Veterinary and love looking after as many animals as I can!

In my spare time, I enjoy going to the gym and meeting up with friends.

Previously I have worked in Pets at Home and through working there my interest in animals grew, and due to this I decided to start working here in order to get more hands-on experience. I have recently completed a level 3 course in Animal Management, and have now progressed onto university to study veterinary nursing.

At home I currently have three Great Danes - Summer, Dexter and Echo. I have also had a variety of animals in the past from reptiles to small animals. My hobbies include DIY, motorcycles and computers.

I previously worked at Pets at Home & during that time I gained hands-on experience with numerous animals, and completed several animal-related exams. This experience in the animal industry reinforced my natural passion for animals and made me want to pursue a higher level of training. I am hoping to return to college to train as a fully-qualified vet nurse in the near future.

I am an avid video maker and most of my free time is spent making short films and videos. I'm also a huge football and boxing fan. I've always had a great love of animals which is shown through my large pet collection which consists of a Leonberger mountain dog, a Bengal cat, a rescue cat, two rabbits, two gerbils and a bearded dragon.

When I left school I went to Halesowen college for 3 years to study a BTEC National Diploma in animal management & animal care. Working with animals has always been a career I wanted to be part of. I would eventually like to progress to become a veterinary nurse.

Since a young age I always had family pets, such as dogs, cats, and hamsters. I do have a big fear of spiders, so if I do see one…I’ll be gone like the wind! I’m looking forward to meeting all our clients & their furry companions.

I have recently joined the Vets4Pets receptionist team. I am currently studying my second year of A-levels, and aspire to progress to study as a Vet.

My love for animals has been present throughout my whole life, as I strongly believe animals create a loving environment for those around. I have had experience working within Dog Groomers in the past, and have 2 dogs of my own; I deeply love caring for animals.

In my spare time I often like to read and travel.

I graduated in veterinary medicine from Riphah College of Veterinary sciences in Lahore in 2020. After graduating I worked there in a corporate dairy sector for a few months where I learned a lot about production animals and large animal surgery. I then decided to move to the UK to advance my knowledge of the veterinary industry. I moved to the UK in October 2021 and soon after I joined Vets4Pets/Companion Care as an animal care assistant. Working here is giving me the opportunity to learn more about companion animals and veterinary surgery, and I feel very lucky to get the opportunity to learn while assisting the veterinary surgeons and nurses. In the meantime, I'm preparing for membership in the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons of London (MRCVS), which will allow me to practice as a veterinary surgeon in the UK.

I am a qualified veterinary surgeon from Pakistan, and I graduated in 2020. I am currently working as a Veterinary Nursing Assistant at Vets4Pets/Companion Care whilst I work towards becoming registered as a practising veterinary surgeon in the UK.

I find this is a great place to learn professional and technical skills, working alongside the best professional team. I am very happy to be a part of this team and looking forward to being a registered veterinary surgeon in the near future.  

I graduated from the University of Northampton in 2012 with a Bachelor of Science Honours degree in Applied Animal Studies, and then started working at Companion Care/Vets4Pets in early 2013. I am also currently studying for my Veterinary Practice Administration Certificate (VPAC).

My role largely involves administration duties, overseeing insurance claims, and the general running of the practice, but I do also play a large role in the nursing of patients.

I was present during the opening of both our Merry Hill & West Bromwich branches, and I am very proud to see their success and see all our happy, regular clients! I am always striving to improve the care & service provided to all our patients & owners.

I have a keen interest in dog behaviour & training. I have a particular soft spot for both spaniels and collies, and am also guinea pig mad! My family currently have a rescue dog called Molly who is a 6 year-old Springer Spaniel cross Collie (pictured with me here). I also own two rescue cats called Izzy and Merlin, as well as a whole herd of guinea pigs!

I am a BSc graduate and have been working alongside the team for almost 4 years now I enjoy the challenge of overlooking all 3 clinics and achieving goals whilst driving the business forward as a whole.

I have gained first-hand experience dealing with animals, from emergency cases to standard consultations.

My role also includes culturing and maintaining client relationships whilst ensuring the best possible service is provided.

Outside of work I am a working dog enthusiast and often spend my free time taking my German Shepherds to training classes.

It has always been my dream to work with animals and improve their wellbeing and welfare.

I have enjoyed volunteering at a local stables where I have cared for the horses and led younger children by lead during lessons.

I have this exciting opportunity to work With Vets4Pets whilst studying for Level 2 Animal Nursing Assistant with a view to progress to Level 3 in Veterinary Nursing at Rodbaston College.

At home I have several rabbits, ponies, chickens, a 90 year old tortoise and two ponies to care for, which take a lot of my spare time up however the enjoyment and satisfaction I get from this is second to none.

I have had the amazing opportunity to travel to many countries and see wild animals in their natural habitat and realise it is down to us to save our planet and protect them.I also attend a street dance class weekly and performed in a number of shows and passed qualifications as well as swimming for a local club and competed in many competitions and galas.

All my life we have had animals at home so I grew up surrounded by them. At age 10 I started spending my weekends at a local rabbit rescue - there I learned so much about animal welfare, and how to care for their mental and physical needs. When I left school I knew I wanted to pursue my passion and go into animal care, and I am now studying a Level 2 Veterinary Care course.

I have recently started as a receptionist. I have a strong passion for animals and people and always love to help out any way I can!

I have 3 rescued cats at home named Lucky, Stephanie and Rosie – Stephanie loves to steal everyone’s food and Rosie is a trouble maker.

I studied at Halesowen College and completed my Level 3 Animal Management, and have accompanied as an extra work staff at Warrens Hall Riding Stable as well as the RSPCA.

I have had a passion to work with animals for a while now. I have taken care of a number of animals from big to small. I joined the practice as a receptionist and hope to start vet nursing in the future.

I have a French bulldog who is very mischievous his name is Ace. He loves playing with his toys and going for walks.

I am looking forward to gaining new experiences and knowledge while working here at vets4pets West Bromwich.  

I’ve joined the reception team here at Vets4Pets and I’m absolutely loving it, I can’t wait to meet all our clients and their amazing pets!
