Meet the team
I am the Director of Loughborough Vets4Pets. I qualified from the University of Bristol in 2003 with a degree in Veterinary Medicine and a degree in Zoology. I have worked in a variety of large and small animal practices across Leicestershire since qualifying and worked with cats, dogs, rabbits, cows, horses, sheep, pigs, alpacas, guinea pigs, chinchillas, marmosets and lots of other creatures. I started Loughborough Vets4Pets in 2013 and have greatly enjoyed working with the pets and people of Loughborough. I enjoy being a general practitioner and dealing with all sorts of pets and their different ailments. I do have a specific interest in treating skin and ear problems. And I have recently completed my post graduate surgery certificate and continue to increase my repertoire of complex orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery. This means we can offer more solutions for our patients without the need for referral. Working in partnership and transparently with our clients, to identify the best treatment plans and care is very important to me.
I joined the team of Veterinary Surgeons in February 2018. I graduated from University of Nottingham in 2014 . Prior to starting my role at Loughborough Vets4Pets I have had previous small animal experience at other vet practices in the East Midlands. At home, I have a border collie called Beau and a horse named Gamble. My outside interests include going for long walks with Beau, dining out and eventing my horse. My special interest at work is general medicine and what I enjoy most working at Loughborough Vets4Pets is working up cases and the contact with clients.
I graduated from the University of Nottingham in July 2020. I have done several student placements at the Practice, so am already familiar with our processes and protocols and has been getting to know our clients and their pets. As part of my veterinary surgeon training I also completed placements in a variety of settings; first opinion and referral centres, covering small animal, large animal and equine. I like to spend my spare time horse riding, as well as driving carriage horses. And when not on a horse, I also enjoy running. My main interest at work is surgery. And I am also keen to develop my skills in diagnostic imaging and general medicine. I enjoy the varied caseload at Loughborough V4P and working as part of a friendly, motivated team.
I studied veterinary nursing and practice management at Harper Adams University and qualified in 2008, and to date have had 16 years of experience working in veterinary practice. I have a special interest in emergency nursing and have obtained a certificate in emergency and critical care. At home I have a dog called Millie and a cat named Bella (pictured). Outside of work I enjoy making the most of my time with my growing family as well as clay pigeon shooting and cinema trips.
I started at Vets4Pets Loughborough in January 2021 during my final stages of the Student Veterinary Nurse training at the College of Animal Welfare, after a career change from being a Marine Biologist. Having recently passed my final exams I am now waiting to qualify as a Registered Veterinary Nurse.
I have just moved into our first home with my partner and our cat Suzi. I enjoy many aspects of nursing and am continually trying to build my skills and knowledge to provide the best care and advice for our furry patients and clients.
Outside of work I enjoy pottering in the garden, learning new crafts and seeing live music along with the odd DIY project around the house.
I’m currently a 2nd year student at Bottle Green College. I really enjoy inpatient care especially with the small exotics like guinea pigs. I have a degree in zoology and I am very passionate about conservation. I have been known to take home injured wildlife, especially birds, and rehabilitate them. I love to travel which has included volunteering in South Africa with penguins and sea birds. It’s here I met a veterinary nurse that encouraged me into practice. I have a cat called Ned and in my free time I enjoy walking my dog, Oscar.
I am the Client and Team Care Manager at Loughborough Vets4Pets and was brought on board to support Luke with the non-clinical aspects of running the Practice. I am married to Luke, the Director of the Practice. My role includes quality assurance management, dealing with and reviewing client feedback and complaints, health and safety, looking after the Practice team and dealing with staffing matters such as recruitment, inductions, practice protocols and supporting colleagues in accessing training and development in their roles. What I enjoy most about working at Loughborough Vets4Pets is being part of a great Practice team, and having an integral role in finding ways to continuously improve the business. My outside interests include keeping fit, dining out and going for country walks with my family and our new puppy, Drift.
I have been part of the Client Care Team since December 2015 and have recently taken on a senior post, leading the team, supporting our newest Client Care Advisors and helping drive improvements in customer service and client care. I also continue to run the provision of our insurance claims recovery service. Outside work I have two dogs, Vera and Chester. I enjoy spending time with my grandchildren and being part of a dance group. The thing I most enjoy about working at Loughborough Vets4Pets is being part of a caring team, and no two days are the same.
I joined the Client Care Team in December 2017. At home I have two cats called Lynx and Peanut, and some tropical fish. I enjoy socialising with friends, watching films, old school gaming and going away on overnight fishing trips. The thing I most enjoy about working at Loughborough Vets4Pets is the cuddles I get with all the animals and meeting different types and breeds of pet.
We are committed to bringing you affordable, high quality care via a modern, well equipped Practice, including a lab, pharmacy, digital x-ray, ops theatre, endoscopy and ultrasound. We pride ourselves on offering excellent customer service and communicating as effectively as we can to provide you and your pet(s) with the best treatment options.

Luke, the Director of the Practice has now completed and passed his post graduate surgery certificate and is very happy to accept 2nd opinion referrals for any orthopaedic / surgical needs that your pets may have.
