Meet the team
Garrick graduated from the University of Pretoria in 2005 and has now spent many years in the UK. He came to us from a practice in Dartford, having enjoyed 2 years with them. Garrick became a partner in the Harlow practice in June 2011. He prefers the medicine side of veterinary work over surgical procedures and achieved his GPCert in Small Animal Medicine in 2013, his GPCert in Endoscopy in 2015 and his PgCert in Small Animal Medicine in 2017 Garrick is now pursuing a GPCert in Cardiology to expand his knowledge. He is particularly successful in helping clients to maintain the quality of their pet's life during terminal illness. Garrick has a passion for sport and can be found, summer weekends, playing cricket on local village greens and at other times with his beloved family.
Anna graduated from the RVC in 2012. After spending two years at a small animal practice in Norwich she joined us in Chingford in 2014, subsequently moving here to Harlow in 2017. Anna has a particular interest in surgery, both soft tissue and orthopaedics and has an advanced certificate in small animal surgery. Anna is about to embark on a new certificate in ophthalmology. Outside of work she is most likely to be found baking/knitting/sewing or out doing something active.
Natasha is the newest addition to our team at Harlow, having graduated in 2021 from the University of Cambridge. She has a varied veterinary background with experience working in canine behaviour, as well as being part of research projects into feline dementia and the genetics of obesity in dogs. Natasha is excited to continue getting to know the clients and patients at Harlow
Kelsey moved to Veterinary Nursing in 1997 after trying the conventional commuting 9 to 5. She trained at a local veterinary hospital where she then eventually took the head nurse role there in 2001. Kelsey remained at that practice until 2006 when she left to have her son, Henry. Kelsey joined us on a part time basis in 2008, became our Head Nurse in 2009 and is a valued member of staff. She is instrumental in training our student nurses, many of which are about to complete final exams. Kelsey recently completed the Diploma in Advance Veterinary Nursing, to further her skills and enable her to provide advanced care to our patients. This is a tough qualification to achieve and is one of only a small number of nurses in the UK to have done so. Kelsey also has the ISFM Diploma in Feline Nursing in order to enhance our feline care. Away from the practice Kelsey likes to spend time with her family, her slightly idiotic ragdoll cats Margo & Jerry and socialising with friends.
Erin came to us in 2016 after completing her BSc (hons) in Animal Management to train as a Veterinary Nurse. She qualified in 2018. Erin spends a great deal of time with her horses Tabi and Fabbie, whilst taking great pains to assure everyone that their names were not her idea. She has a cat Theo, who is a rescue. Theo has been taught tricks such as high 5, sit and give paw, a major achievement for a cat! Erin very much enjoys behavioural therapy and helping our patients overcome their fear of the vets.
Sophie is from Harlow and came to Vets4Pets Harlow in January 2017 after having her son Alfie. Sophie qualified in 2014 and has also achieved her SQP award.
Rose came to Vets4Pets Harlow in 2017 and is currently studying for her nursing qualification. She likes to spend time outside of work with her pets, family and friends.
Chloe graduated from Writtle University College in September 2018 with a BSc in Animal Science. Prior to her degree, Chloe has worked in a kennel/cattery and an Animal charity finding new homes for companion animals. She has three cats at home which she adores. Chloe is a very chatty and bubbly person willing to help anyone. She joined us early 2019 as a Veterinary Care Assistant and is now pursuing a Veterinary Nursing qualification.
Jessica joined us 2020 to start her career in veterinary medicine. Jessica has spent time in the transport industry prior to following her dream to work toward becoming a Veterinary Nurse. She has many pets of her own and enjoys spending time with them and her family when not working.

I have been working at Vets4Pets Harlow since May 2021. Previously I had been a receptionist at Vets4Pets Hertford. Prior to working in the veterinary field I worked in childcare and education. After deciding a change of career was necessary and due to my passion and interest of animals I decide to move into the veterinary field. I have 5 small dogs of my own (it’s only like 1 big dog really!!) so that keeps me busy when I am not at work! I look forward to meeting you and your pets and reception
Vets4Pets Harlow is committed to bringing you affordable, high quality care via a modern, well equipped practice, including a lab, pharmacy, digital x-ray, endoscopy and ultrasound. Plus, on site car parking too!
The friendly team can't wait to meet all of their new clients!
