I graduated from Bologna's University (Italy) in 2012 and I then went on doing a Master Degree in Animal Reproduction which I finished in 2014. My husband and I moved to the UK in 2015 and I have been working in small animal practices ever since.

I have obtained my Oncology GP-Cert in 2016 and I moved to Crawley in July 2020 to start as the Head Vet for the practice. I started a further qualification in Diagnostic Imaging in 2021 which I will achieve in 2023.

In March 2022 I became Joint Venture Partner and I now run the practice together with James Fowler MRCVS.

I have a son currently at primary school and young daughter at nursery. In my spare time I enjoy spending time with my family and my 5 cats, including a Maine Coon.

Since November 2022, she has been a valued member of the team at Vets for Pets Crawley. With a strong interest in behavioural medicine, rabbits, and small furries, Rachel is passionate about providing tailored care to every animal she sees. She particularly enjoys surgery and dentistry, and always strives to combine her clinical interests with a compassionate, patient-focused approach. Building strong relationships with pets and their owners is at the heart of her work. Outside the clinic, Rachel enjoys riding at a local riding school, exploring her creative side through art, and spending time with her much-loved pets – her Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever, Rain, and her trio of rats: Bluey, Rascal, and Rogue.

I grew up in Southern Ireland and was extremely fortunate to share my wonderful childhood with animals of all different shapes and sizes! I trained in Edinburgh, Ireland and England qualifying in 2001. After which, I went travelling around the world and was lucky enough to work in Morocco. Since then I worked a various places included the RSPCA in Putney.

 I was lucky enough to be employed by Vets4Pets on a part time basis. I love all aspects of my job and have a special interest in animal welfare. I very much enjoy caring for our inpatients and do enjoy the buzz of a busy prep room!

When I am not at work I am exercising by my two dogs, Otter a cheeky border terrier who came from my work at the RSPCA and Moose, a wonderfully loyal Labrador. We also have a lovely pony called Foresta and Weasel, our little domestic short haired cat who also came from the RSPCA in Putney. She is adored by the children and is lucky enough to be the only animal allowed upstairs! I enjoy exercising when I am not being mum; I especially love going for 5-10km runs. The dogs get super excited when the trainers go on!

Hello! My name is Hannah and I am the Practice Administrator.

My favourite part of the job is being in charge of the charity aspect, helping both the owners and their beloved pets in their journey to getting the help they need.

At home, I have 3 dogs and 3 cats so I'm used to all the chaos, but I wouldn't have it any other way!

Before starting my role as a veterinary receptionist I worked part time at a beauty salon. I have also been busy raising my family of 3 children.

My favourite part of my job is talking and meeting new people and hearing all about their pets.

 When I'm not at work you will find me snuggled up with my 5 cats, Reggie, Apollo, Ivy, Duke and Coco.
