Meet the team
I am the Joint Venture Partner for the Guernsey Vets4Pets surgeries, opening our St Martins branch in 2004 and our St Sampsons branch in 2010. I am based in the St Martins branch along with Raz.
I grew up in Cape Town, South Africa and I graduated with my first degree of a Bachelor of Science with Honours in Ichthyology: Fisheries science, from Rhodes University and completed my Bachelor of Veterinary Science in 2000 from the University of Pretoria, Onderstepoort.
I have worked in Cape Town, Saudi Arabia and the UK but have been in Guernsey since 2004 when I opened the first practice.
I particularly enjoy soft tissue surgery and am currently studying for an Advanced Orthopeadic certificate in surgery.
I was born and grew up in Vienna, Austria.
I graduated from the University of Veterinary Medicine in Vienna in 2001. I then spent 5 years working in the UK before I moved back to Austria to open my own practice. I sold my practice in 2012 to move with my son, Kimo, along with our golden retriever, Amadeus, to Guernsey to work for Vets4Pets.
I am based at our St Sampsons branch and I also run our mobile veterinary clinic.
I am interested in ophthalmology and soft tissue surgery and in September 2013 I enrolled onto a course with the RCVS to complete a certificate in advanced small animal practice.
Professor Dick White is one Europe’s leading small animal soft tissue surgeons with special interests in airway & ENT surgery, oncologic surgery, wound management and reconstructive surgery. He has published widely in all aspects of soft tissue surgery and surgical oncology.
Dick spent more than 25 years teaching clinical surgery at the University of Cambridge and was also a visiting Associate professor at the University of Tennessee. In 1990, he became one of the first European veterinarians to achieve the Diploma of the American college of Veterinary Surgeons.
He was a founder of the European College of Veterinary Surgeons and The British College of Veterinary Specialists and is also patron of The Dick White Charitable Foundation which promotes veterinary education, animal welfare and progress in clinical research.
Dick founded his own specialist referral centre, Dick White Referrals in 2003 near Newmarket in the UK; the centre is now the largest privately-funded small animal specialist clinic in Europe. The centre now employs more than 250 members of staff ranging from Trainee VNs to Specialists.
When not working, Dick enjoys jazz, gardening, flying, salmon fishing and working his Deutsch Drathaar, Otto Von Bismarck.
I was born and grew up in Tel-Aviv, Israel, constantly surrounded by animals. I could never imagine my life without them and becoming a vet was just a matter of time, along with support from my parents.
In 2010, I graduated from the University of Kosice in Slovakia with a degree in Veterinary Medicine. After graduation I moved to London where I worked in a variety of different small animal practices and referral hospitals.
In July 2013, I moved to the island with my wife Clarisse and our cat Georgette. My family has now grown larger and we have two beautiful little girls, Alma and Nina who were both born here.
I have a strong interest in Radiology and I have recently qualified as a post-graduate Certificate holder in Diagnostic imaging (Radiography, Ultrasonography, CT and MRI modalities). My passion continues and I am already busy studying for the next level in this field.
I graduated from Cambridge University in 2003 and worked in mixed and small animal practice in the UK before settling in Guernsey in 2011.
Having a fascination for eyes and ocular disorders I spent several years spending every spare minute with various Veterinary Ophthalmologists before passing the Royal College Certificate in Veterinary Ophthalmology in 2011. I now perform many of the eye surgeries on Guernsey pets using our fantastic operating microscope at the St Martins surgery.
In the last 3 years I have become very interested in pain management and enrolled on the Western Veterinary Acupuncture and Chronic Pain Management Certificate. I now run the Acupuncture service for Vets4Pets based at the St Sampsons surgery, the Wellness Centre. Here I work with our Physiotherapy and Hydrotherapy team to help animals in pain or having post-surgical rehabilitation. I love getting to know my patients and seeing them go from strength to strength!
Apart from work I have 2 daughters and a tribe of rescue animals who keep me happy and busy!

Registered Veterinary Nurse
RVN
I left school after my 12th year in order to pursue a career in animal care, and after applying for a job was luck enough to be picked up by the Vets4pets team as a trainee care assistant in October 2015.
I have lived with animals all my life and currently own three cats, two dogs and two parrots and have volunteered at the local animal shelter since 2012 where I discovered my passion for animals.
I recently joined the team at Vets4Pets at the end of January 2017.
Working with animals is something I have always wanted to do. I first met the team when I did a couple of weeks' work experience back in May 2016. I kept in touch, and was lucky enough to receive a job offer. I have been enrolled onto the Animal Nursing Assistant course at Myerscough College and also hope to train and qualify as a Veterinary Nurse sometime in the future.

Nicola De Carteret
Student Veterinary Nurse
I was born and grew up in London and qualified as a veterinary nurse in 1992. I worked for the RSPCA Putney Animal Hospital for many years as a theatre staff nurse and am proud to be the first veterinary nurse to have ever performed surgery on TV for Animal Hospital whilst studying for my surgical diploma. I moved to Guernsey in 2004 and worked with Les as his Head Nurse, helping to build the business to where it is today. I left in 2011 for 3 years to pursue other things but have now come back as Practice Manager.
I have two mad cats at home, ‘Jock’ and ‘Dexter’ and am currently studying for a veterinary management degree. In my spare time, I enjoy drawing and painting and have my own pet portrait website where I do commissions.

Catherine McConnell
Animal Health Assistant
I joined the practice at the end of June 2016. I have a qualification in Business Administration where I learned a lot that has helped me in my role as a receptionist. While I don't use it as much as I should I also know shorthand.
I also have a BTEC qualification in ICT. With a background in working in customer service I make it a priority to give my best to look after our clients and ensure they get the best service they can.
We have a family dog called Sam who is 10 years old, and much like me, he is barking mad! In my spare time I enjoy swimming, drawing and socialising with my friends.
