I qualified from the University of Nottingham and began working at Liverpool Vets4Pets in June 2015. I was excited to join the team having previously undertaken placements here as a student, and have since enjoyed getting to know all of our lovely clients and their pets. I have always had a keen interest in small animal practice, particularly in soft tissue surgery and ophthalmology. At home I have a naughty tortie cat called Chihiro.

I qualified in 2015 in Warsaw University of Life Sciences in Poland. I had worked in Poland for three years before I moved to UK to expand my knowledge and experience. I have initially completed a 1.5 year internship in referral veterinary hospital to than transfer again to 1st opinion practice environment. I find working for Vets4Pets challenging, but also extremely interesting with the variety of the patients we see. Privately, I am a passionate outdoor person - I enjoy everything which involves camping, hiking, sailing, or just roaming around with my backpack.

Hi, I'm Andre, one of the vets at Old Swan. I qualified from the University of Liverpool and joined the vet team after having worked as a receptionist and veterinary care assistant at the practice during my studies.
I have a keen interest in Emergency and Critical Care as well as Soft Tissue and Orthopaedic surgery. I am currently working towards two further qualifications in these areas to achieve FCert(ECC) and PgC(SAS).
I'm looking forward to seeing all our regular clients along with welcoming new ones in my capacity as a Surgeon. My family is from the Czech Republic and so I am able to offer myself as a Czech speaking veterinarian in the heart of Liverpool to those who need it.
I have had a whole host of pets since I was little and currently share my house with my cat Isa and my two German Shepherds Rhea and Luca.

I qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon from the Royal Veterinary College, London in 2020. Liverpool is my home city and so it was always my intention to come back here permanently once I qualified. I have been based in small animal practice since my graduation and thoroughly enjoy all areas of veterinary surgery and medicine. Outside of work I enjoy baking, hiking and spending time with my border terrier cross dog and ragamuffin cat.

I qualified as a Veterinary Nurse in 2002. Following that I took a break from nursing to go to university to study graphic design. I returned to nursing in 2016 and before joining the vets4pets team in August 2017, I volunteered as a Veterinary Nurse at the PDSA for 8 months. I really enjoy working at Vets4Pets Old Swan, we have a lovely, friendly team here and wonderful clients and patients. I love looking after all the animals that come in to our care at the surgery and meeting our clients with their pets in our nurse clinics. At home I have have two rescue cats called Missy and Zelda and a bearded dragon called Brian. When I am not at Vets4Pets I am usually working at home as a freelance graphic designer and taking my two sons freerunning.

I have been at Old Swan Vets4Pets since I was 6 months qualified. I thoroughly enjoy working at this practice and get along well with the team as they are more like my family.
My favourite part of the job is meeting the lovely owners and creating a bond with the owners and their pets through our nurse consultations. I have 2 black and white rescue cats called Cosmo and Cleo who I adore. I also have a bunny who lives indoors called Dexter. I have a keen interest in rabbits and love to be involved with their cases. I love expanding my knowledge of animals through continued professional development.
In my spare time I like to practice my make-up skills and attend various gigs as I also love live music.

I first fell in love with animals from a young age, when my mum would only allow me to have a pet goldfish, therefore I would mind other peoples pets. I started working for Vets4Pets in Old Swan as a third year student and fell in love with the team and the practice. I have now been qualified for three years. I have keen interest in nurse clinics as I love to meet new animals that come into the practice. I am currently completing a certificate in this.

In my spare time, I enjoy spending time with family and going to the gym!

I first started working for Vets4Pets as a student and traveled around other practices to gain more experience before coming back to Old Swan as a registered nurse. I have been qualified since 2017, I have a keen interest in anaesthesia and surgery and would hope to complete a certificate in this soon. I love all animals but I especially love bigger dogs as they are the same height as me.

I wanted to be a vet nurse from a very early age (7) after my cat was run over and was looked after by some amazing vet nurses, and this never wavered. As soon as I left school I was lucky enough to find a practice to train in.

I have now been nursing for over 30 years and still love it!!! My particular interest is consulting and preventative health care. I love helping people look after their pets to try to keep them healthy and happy.

I have a few pets of my own, a Boxer dog called Maddi who is 13 years old, 4 cats of varying ages Mikey, Smitt, Priddy and Alien, 2 rats Remy & Lilac who are nearly 2 years old and 8 free range guinea pigs!

I also volunteer with a couple of animal charities as I can help them with my nursing experience, but this is also why I have ended up with rats and guinea pigs!!!

I’m Carmen, I am a newly qualified registered veterinary nurse and I’ve just completed the Fdsc Veterinary nursing degree at myerscough college.

I’ve been working in varies practices on placements since 2015 & I’ve always known I wanted to become a veterinary nurse since my little stray cat, called Gladys made his way into my life.

Sadly Gladys passed away in April 2021 but his joy being in my life,encourages me to see animals live a long, happy life.

I love meeting new animals on a daily & knowing I can give them the best health & welfare needed.

I find my job role so rewarding & enjoy all the puppy & kitten cuddles.

In my spare time I enjoy going the gym as it keeps my mind set motivated & body strong (for lifting up all those big fur babies)hiking, going away & seeing new places.

Alongside working in Old Swan Vets4Pets I am currently training to become a Counsellor, and would like to eventually specialise in Pet Bereavement Counselling. I have been involved with horses for over 30 years, which I am currently taking a break from but hope to return to in the future.
