Lincoln South Vets4Pets

I graduated from the University of Liverpool in July 2007. I started my career at a mixed practice in Barnsley, South Yorkshire, treating all species and moved into small animal practice two years later, working at a large first opinion and referral practice in West Yorkshire until opening Vets4Pets Lincoln South. I enjoy all aspects of small animal practice, but my main areas of interest are surgery and anaesthesia. To further these interests I have taken postgraduate training with a surgical bias and was awarded the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice (General Small Animal Surgery) in 2014. As a result of this qualification and a commitment to continued training, I am recognised as an RCVS Advanced Practitioner in Small Animal Surgery. Lucy and I met at university. We got married in July 2013 and have moved to Lincoln to be closer to family. Lucy and I own a crossbreed dog called Nellie. We are fairly sure she is a whippet cross collie. We enjoy running our own practice and want to maintain a ‘family feel’ to the surgery, whilst offering high clinical standards.

I graduated from the University of Liverpool in 2007 and moved to Leeds to work at a family run small animal practice. I am interested in general small animal medicine and surgery but have a stronger interest in medicine, particularly dermatology, cardiology and feline medicine. My favourite piece of equipment is my stethoscope! Used in nearly every consultation I do and one of the most valuable pieces of equipment we have in day to day practice. I am originally from Lincoln and returned here, with David, to open Vets4Pets Lincoln South in 2014. In our spare time David and I love to take our dog, Nellie, on long walks. I am enjoying being back home in Lincolnshire and meeting our new clients and their pets!

I graduated from the University of Edinburgh in July 2004, and started my career working at a large mixed practice in rural Suffolk. After three years there, I spent some time working as a locum vet, both around the UK and abroad. Particular highlights included working for a small animal practice in Auckland, and volunteering for a charity neutering cats on the tiny Pacific island of Aitutaki. I moved to Lincoln in 2009, where I met my husband, Mark, and have lived here ever since. I joined the team here at Vets4Pets Lincoln South in January 2017, and am enjoying getting to know all of our clients and their pets. Professionally, I enjoy all aspects of first opinion practice, but have a particular interest in feline medicine. I have two small boys, as well as a Springer Spaniel called Suzie and a cat called Friday, who keep me busy when I'm not at work. I enjoy walking, family days out, and, when I get the chance, getting lost in a good book.

I graduated from University of Nottingham in July 2022 so I am excited to be starting my career as a vet at Vets4Pets Lincoln South. I have a particular interest in small furry mammals which lead me to some exotics work as a student where I was able to work with lots of interesting animals, including otters and penguins. When I am not in practice I enjoy weight lifting, hiking, and baking. I aspire to have my own small holding one day, but for now I would settle for some Guinea pigs.

I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2006 and graduated with BSc (Hons) Veterinary Nursing and Practice Management in 2007. I have worked in a variety of practices from general practice to a veterinary hospital, dealing with small animals, farm animals and horses. I have also worked with a variety of zoo animals such as lions and zebras. I joined Vets4Pets in June 2016 following maternity leave with my son and became Head Nurse in 2021 after having my daughter. I have a particular interest in animal behaviour, oral care and surgical nursing. I have completed the BVNA Certificate in Small Animal Behaviour and BVNA Oral Care Nursing. I have completed further training in Schedule 3 Surgical Procedures which allows me to carry out certain surgical procedures. At home, I have a cat called Oddi and my children’s pony named Robbie.

I joined Vets4Pets in November 2018. I am originally from Lincoln and have worked in a couple of practices in the area over the last 16 years. I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2013 after this being my chosen career since I was young. I completed my International Society of Feline Medicine Certificate in Feline Friendly Nursing in 2016. I have a keen interest in emergency and critical care and gained my certificate in ECC in 2020. Whilst not studying, I enjoy walking my Border Terrier, Piper, reading and playing tennis.

I joined Vets4Pets in July 2021, I have worked in a couple of practices in and around Lincoln. After many years of working in practices, I knew this was the career I wanted to pursue. I later graduated from university in 2019 with BSc (Hons) in Veterinary Nursing. I enjoy surgery and anaesthesia, in which I am completing some further studies. In my spare time, I enjoy socialising with my family and friends.

I graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in 2020 after completing a Foundation Degree in Veterinary Nursing. I then furthered my education by studying the BSc top up degree, where I gained a keen interest in Emergency and Critical Care. My dissertation was focused on blood transfusions in dogs, which was partly inspired by my own dog Bruno, who required a blood transfusion after suffering from a non-regenerative anaemia. After completing this, I then joined Lincoln South Vets4Pets in June 2021. Outside of work I enjoy going out exploring different cities and countryside.

I joined the Vets4Pets team in September 2020 after having completed the BTEC Level 3 Extended Diploma in Animal Management at Riseholme College. My future goal is to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse which has been my dream job for as long as I can remember. In my spare time I enjoy socialising with my friends and watching more Netflix than I would like to admit. I have a tabby cat called Heidi, who although has a major attitude, she is the love of my life.

I became part of the Vets4Pets team in November 2018 to fulfil my dream of working with animals. I have a Level 3 diploma in Animal Management, which I gained from attending Riseholme College from 2013-2015. I then went to work abroad in Spain as a “gap year”… Three years later I decided to stay put in England. I became a receptionist at Vets4Pets because I just LOVE working with animals; getting cuddles off them all day every day is the best thing about my job. 

I joined the Vets4Pets Reception team in 2020, having previously worked within a veterinary hospital. My favourite part of the job is meeting and greeting all my furry clients, and dishing out a biscuit or two! Outside of work, I own an Arabian horse called Dylan, a working Springer Spaniel called Willow and a black and white cat called Domino.

I joined Vets4pets in September 2022, I love meeting all the animals that come into the practice, especially for cuddles. I love visiting new places & cities. At home I have a Border Terrier x Mini Jack Russel called Harley. He loves lots of fuss and walks. 

I joined the Vets4Pets team in August 2022, after I graduated from the University of Lincoln where I studied bioveterinary science. Prior to this I studied animal management at Riseholme college. My future goal is to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse. In my spare time I enjoy baking, reading and spending quality time with my springer spaniels and dwarf cat dolly.
