Vets4Pets Rotherham

Hi, I’m Eric and I’m the Partner and Senior Vet here at Rotherham Vets4Pets. I wanted to be a Vet from a very early age and have always loved being around animals. I gained my Veterinary degree at The University of Madrid and very soon after made the UK my permanent home. I have a particular passion for surgery and whilst working as a full time vet in a small animal hospital, I achieved my Certificate in Small Animal Surgery accredited by the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons. I am also an RCVS Advanced Practitioner in small animal surgery. I have previously run a successful Soft Tissue Referral Service in Doncaster and I’m excited to now offer a range of referral services here in Rotherham and the surrounding areas. I live in Doncaster with my Wife and two young children and our newest addition Saffy the Cocker Spaniel. As a pet owner myself, I am passionate about providing the highest standards of care for the animals that I treat and their owners.

Hi, I’m Tom and I graduated from the University of Liverpool. I grew up in Yorkshire and have worked in a number of practices, ranging from small first opinion branches to busy 24/7 hospitals.

I qualified as a veterinary surgeon from the Warsaw University of Life Sciences in February 2018 and joined the Rotherham team in May. It is my first job as a vet and I enjoy meeting new people and their fluffy friends!

From a very young age I knew I wanted to work with animals. At the age of 15 I got my first veterinary care assistant job after school and at the weekends to help to pay for the upkeep of my then pony Molly. This opportunity gave me great knowledge in the industry and I decided I would like to start training to become a veterinary nurse. I began my degree in 2012 and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2015. I have a keen interest in surgical nursing and also nutrition. What is your favourite animal and why? It is too hard for me to choose just one favourite animal, as I love them all! What pets do you have and what are their names? I have a 16 year old male Staffordshire Bull Terrier called Naz, he is a cuddly boy! A 12 year old white cat called Trinity who I hand reared and a black and white cat called Frank who is approximately 7 years old- he adopted me! What's the best pet name that you've ever come across? Ann-bun-lyn & Mary Hopins! two rabbits What's the best aspect of working for Vets4Pets? We are a very friendly team and are all dedicated to the work we do. It makes it a pleasure to be at work.
