I am originally from Chester and qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon at the University of Edinburgh in 2010. I started working at Vets4Pets Solihull in 2015 when I became a joint partner in the practice, a couple of years later I also became a joint partner of Vets4Pets Halesowen.
I feel the most rewarding aspects of being a vet is helping clients on a daily basis and building long term relationships with pets and their owners. I currently have a rescue cat called Garfield, who’s a character to say the least!

I started working at Halesowen Vets4Pets in December 2021, the team here is wonderful and I enjoy being able to meet all the wonderful pets. I graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2015 and since then have grown my passion in seeing and treating all pets (including the more “exotic” patients – including reptiles and birds). I am currently studying towards a certificate in zoological medicine, allowing me to expand my knowledge in this area even further.
I enjoy spending my free time out walking with my German Shepherd Bear, or sitting down relaxing with a good book! I also have three guinea pigs and a hamster but my dream pet is a Monitor Lizard. I look forward to meeting all your furry, scaled and feathered pets!

I qualified from the Royal Veterinary College in London in 2021, I’m interested in all aspects of companion animal work. In particular, I’m invested in being a regular point of care for my clients, building lasting relationships with pets and their families.
The UK has been my home for 6 years, with much of my time spent exploring the British countryside.

Veterinary Surgeon
MRCVS
I qualified as an RVN in 2016 and have worked in various roles including out of hours emergencies and referral. I have been here at Vets4Pets Halesowen since October and love the team. No two days are the same! Outside of work I run a small livery yard which keeps me very busy and any other free time is usually spent walking with my dog, Max.

I have been at Halesowen Vets4Pets since August 2011 although I have been in the industry for over 20 years. I am a clinical coach and help with the training of student nurses in practice. My passion in practice is small furries and nurse clinics.
I have 2 dogs, 5 cats and a very naughty Parrot.
I have been at Vets4Pets since March 2020, finishing my nursing training here and qualifying as a RVN in October 2021. I love the surgical side of nursing and assisting in theatre and working alongside the veterinary surgeons during operations.
Before training to become an RVN I have worked as a dog groomer and also worked at a rehoming charity for animals too. Outside of work I am very artistic and enjoying using my illustration degree to create designs. At home I have two beautiful dogs who I love and have previously had pet rats, mice, degus, hamsters and tropical fish.

I joined Vets4Pets in October 2021 as a student nearing the end of my training. I qualified in February 2022 and am excited to begin my career as an RVN with the wonderful team at Halesowen. I particularly enjoy caring for our in-patients and I'm developing an interest in dental nursing.
Outside of work, I enjoy music, gardening, birdwatching and spending time with our retired greyhound Frazer.

Hi I’m Kim, I joined Halesowen Vets4Pets in November 2021 and as a first year student it was amazing to see how nice everyone was.
Before my veterinary nursing course, I worked at a farm working with everything from cows to emus.
I have one very naughty hamster called Sid who has taken over my bedroom…

I started at Vets4Pets in August 2021. Previously I completed 2 years of placement at 2 other veterinary practices where I studied for my National Extended Diploma in Animal Management. I am now in my 2nd year of studying BSc (Hons) Veterinary nursing at Moreton Morrell.
I thoroughly enjoy working at Vets4Pets, where we get to see a range of animals and work with a brilliant team.
I have a special interest in rabbits. I have two pet rabbits, an English spot and Netherland Dwarf. In my spare time I enjoy being out in the open, going on long walks in the countryside and of course spending time with my bunnies.
I first began working at Vets4Pets at the start of 2018, where I was Practice Manager at Solihull. In 2019, I was given the opportunity to join the team here at Halesowen, and my time is now spent between the 2 pracitces.
I had spent the previous 11 years as a Qualified Veterinary Nurse. My main passion within this profession has always been for patient and client care, I now have the chance to really give the best care to clients as well as their pets, and still get to help nurse when needed.
I currently have 4 cats, all but one are hand reared rescues that came to my place of work. You will see me around the practice, so I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

I started working for Vets4Pets in November 2018 as a Client Care Advisor and moved to the role of Senior Advisor in January 2020. Working in the practice is very different to my previous roles where I spent 20 years working in the hospitality, catering and entertainment industries. I love being part of the team here in Halesowen, meeting all the clients and their pets. It’s so nice to see familiar faces and watching the animals grow and develop.
I’ve had lots of pets over the years from cats to chickens. Currently I have Monty – a charismatic wire fox haired terrier who likes to keep me on my toes.
Looking forward to meeting you in the practice soon.
I first joined Halesowen Vet4Pets in 2020 after moving over from the West Bromwich branch. The team here is amazing which makes working here even more enjoyable!
It’s so lovely to meet owners and their beloved pets each day and to hear many stories of mayhem and mischief.
I have two rescue cats called Dottie and Rupert (mother and son) who we rescued pretty much straight after Dottie gave birth, therefore we were lucky in being able to raise Rupert from a tiny baby!
In my spare time I enjoy spending time with friends and family and going on weekends away.

I joined Halesowen Vets4Pets in January 2021. It was lovely joining such a close team and feeling accepted straight away.
I enjoy that every day here is different and hearing all about your lovely pets.
I have a 3 year old Staffordshire bull terrier named Jax. Who we’ve had since he was 8 weeks old.
In my spare time I enjoy visiting new places and spending time with friends and family.
