Meet the team
Having originally trained in New Zealand, I graduated from Massey University in 1995, and during the 19 years that have flown by since then, I have gained a wealth of knowledge in small animal practice. I have been practising in the UK since 1998. I have thoroughly enjoyed my career so far, during which time I have developed a passion for canine and feline medicine and therapeutics and a great enthusiasm for working with small furries (rabbits, guinea pigs & hamsters).
I now relish the challenge that having my own clinic will bring, along with the chance to develop and nurture my fabulous team, some of whom I have worked closely with before.
At home, I have a dog named Bali and a rabbit called Lieutenant Dan. When not at work, I enjoy the outdoors, live (rock) music, theatre, cinema and travel.
At Vets4Pets Braintree, clients can be assured of receiving the best level of both clinical and customer care. I shall endeavour to instil an atmosphere where they feel welcome, nurtured and respected and where their pets are treated as though they were part of our family.

From a very young age I knew I had always wanted to work alongside animals in one way or another, as it is a huge passion of mine. I started my career and training in Chelmsford where I gained much of my knowledge. I have been nursing since I was 17 years old, and qualified in 2015. I thoroughly enjoy nursing, we see so many amazing and exciting procedures and no two days are ever the same. At home I own 2 dogs - Mary and Lexi and an Alexanders Parakeet. In my spare time I enjoy playing netball, walking the dogs with friends, going to the cinema, and when I get chance jetting off on holiday.
I have always had a keen interest in animals and I trained at Writtle College, qualifying as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2014.
I have worked for the Vets4Pets group at several other practices, moving up to the position of Head nurse and practice manager. I then spent some time working as a locum and joined the team at Vet4Pets Braintree in June 2020.
At home I have a cat called Ollie and a tortoise called Lollypop, in my spare time I enjoy socialising and travelling the world.

Registered Veterinary Nurse

I have always wanted to work with animals after being a keen watcher of Monkey Life and other animal programmes when I was younger.
I have grown up with lots of different animals, such as dogs, cats, goats and horses. I also have a huge passion for guinea pigs and own lots of them, so you can imagine how loud my house is! In my spare time I enjoy getting tattoos, caring for my guinea pigs and going out for dinner with friends. I will look forward to meeting you and your animals.
My name is Georgia, I am a Receptionist at Vet4Pets Braintree. I have always dreamt of a career in the animal industry, as I have always enjoyed being surrounded by animals. I currently own a cat called Alfie, a dog called Ron, crested gecko called Gendry, royal python called Sydney, Hognose snake called Hedwig, rabbits Luna and Caramac and guinea pigs Timon and Pumba. During my free time, I also look after a small holding, where I look after sheep, alpacas, chickens and a Labrador called Rosie. I also enjoy going to the cinema with friends. I look forward to meeting you and your pets.
