Advanced services

Orthopaedics

Our veterinary team have undertaken advanced training to allow us to perform orthopaedic surgery in our practice. If your pet develops an abnormality involving their skeleton or joints, such as elbow dysplasia, a patella (kneecap) that gets stuck, or a torn cruciate ligament, an orthopaedic procedure may help them.

I was born in County Down, Northern Ireland and grew up on a farm. I studied at the Royal Dick School of Veterinary Medicine in Edinburgh and qualified in 1993. Since then, I have worked in mixed practice, pig practice, the veterinary pharmaceutical industry and small animal practice. I have lived in West Yorkshire for over twenty years and can now tell the difference between a Yorkshire accent and a Lancashire one! I enjoy reading, collecting and playing vinyl, watching movies and listening to Mark Kermode.

I have been with Vets for Pets Halifax since 2012. Prior to this I worked as an artificial insemination technician in large animals (horses and cow). Moving from large animal into small animal was a bit of a change, but it is definitely much warmer working conditions now!

I have 3 small dogs of my own, Django, Noodle and Margaret and I have two children, Cinnamon and Eric who keep me very busy with their busy footballing lives! My favourite part of the job would have to be the people I get to work alongside and the clients/patients we get to meet and help along the way. It's such a satisfying feeling to know you may have actually made a difference to the life of a pet and then in turn a client. I am extremely proud of the team I work with, we really are like a little family!

In any spare time I get (which isn't much) I love to go for big walks with the family, travel and read.

As a child, my love of animals predicted that one day I would work with them.
I grew up with dogs, cats, rabbits, sheep and horses and was forever bringing home waifs and strays or wildlife that had been injured.
 
I have now been a qualified Veterinary Nurse for 20yrs (gulp!) and it is fair to say that I have loved every moment. 
The variety of clinical cases, array of lovely patients and the emotional rollercoaster that this career brings certainly provides a fantastic feeling of job satisfaction.
At work I love 'in patient' care, Nurse Clinics and I have a soft spot for senior pets and feisty (misunderstood!) cats.
 
I joined Halifax in September and am loving working with a larger (brilliant) team and experiencing the referral side of surgery and meeting all your furry friends!
 
Outside of work; I have 2 children, a bicycle obsessed Husband, a cheeky/clingy Cavapoo called Buddy, a snooty British Shorthaired cat called Hettie and a selection of Guinea pigs that eat us out of house and home!
 
As a family we enjoy walking, cycling, camping and watching movies. I enjoy socialising with friends, visiting the theatre, watching live music and indulging in crisps and wine!

From an early age I realised caring for animals was my passion. I began my career as a Saturday girl at a vet practice as soon as I left school. I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in December 2015. I joined Halifax Vets for Pets in August 2022 and I have loved becoming part of the team and seeing the varied cases that walk through the door. 

My favourite part of the job is all things anaesthesia alongside always trying to provide the best care I can to the patients. 

Outside of work I have three young children Jenson, Penny and Leo who keep me extremely busy! I also have two Golden Retrievers, Prince and Claude and a three legged cat called Bear. 

In my spare time I enjoy spending quality time with my friends and family. I also enjoy walking the dogs for some peace and quiet which is rare in our house!

Student Veterinary Nurse

I’ve been in practice since I was 17 and worked as a qualified Veterinary Care Assistant for 6 and a half years after completing my VCA course, before taking the leap and starting my journey as a Student Veterinary Nurse, I am often known for my many different hair colours and awful singing (my colleagues can vouch for me on that one!).

It’s always been my dream to work with animals, ever since my first trip to Chester Zoo at the age of 2.

I know nothing will ever beat the feeling of taking care and looking after any and every animal I possibly can.

After graduation and qualifying as a Registered Veterinary Nurse I aim to gain my qualification in exotics and wildlife nursing and work within zoos and conservation facilities abroad in places like Africa, Australia and New Zealand.

I have a strong passion for ultrasonography and in-patient care and I’m also aiming for my certification in ultrasonography.

I love travelling and I always aim to travel to somewhere new at any given opportunity. I also love walking in the Lake District and the Yorkshire Dales and going to the beach.

I am very proud of my role within the veterinary industry and love meeting all of your fur babies each day.

My name is Julie. I’m the Senior Client Care Advisor at the practice and have worked here since 2013. No day is the same which makes it interesting. I no longer have my own dog but regularly walk my Dad's dog Lucy, being a Border Collie she loves to run! My pet hate is people who don't pick up their dog mess and who mistreat animals.

I have worked as a receptionist at Halifax Vets for Pets since 2015. I have ridden all my life and until recently bred and showed Welsh breeds of ponies. I have always owned dogs and currently have three, all of which are terriers. I also used to breed and show poultry mainly Pekin and Japanese Bantams. I love being a part of the team here and the best bit is meeting the clients, both the two legged and four legged!

Client Care Advisor

I have been with Vets for Pets Halifax since 2020 as a Client Care Advisor and what a journey it has been so far! Although I have always had a passion and love for animals, I had no experience working within the Veterinary Profession coming into this role, and therefore was very apprehensive as to what I was going into. That said, I can truly say that is has been the best decision I have made for my career. From working with such a remarkable, talented team who truly feel like family, to getting to meet and help so many animals and witness them become such loving pets to wonderful clients; it really is such a rewarding job.  
I have one pet of my own, Winston; a black show cocker Spaniel, who I adore with all my heart. I spend most of my free time out on long walks with my family and the dogs or baking away in the kitchen, creating cakes and treats for family and friends. I also adore travelling to different countries, soaking up the sun and diving into their cuisines.
One fact about me is that I am a total Spaniel lover! I cannot help myself but to cuddle all the spaniels that come into work and hope one day to have a little tribe of spaniels of my own.
