Newark Vets4Pets

Hi. My name is Bec and I am a Registered Veterinary Nurse. I have been a qualified nurse for just over twenty years. Before moving to Vets4Pets I was head theatre nurse at a large referral hospital. My main interest within the profession is pet bereavement, veterinary education, surgical nursing and wound management. I have presented a number of lectures for clients and colleagues on these subjects.

Outside of work I am kept busy with my six year old daughter and two dogs; Brian, a mad Border Collie and Max, a greedy black Labrador.

Having worked in the veterinary industry for 6 years, qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) for 3 years, I have gained experience from a variety of small animal and mixed practices. I have been at Vets4Pets Newark since the day it opened in March 2018, with the exception of a brief spell at a different branch. I have loved seeing the practice grow from day one, to where we are now. It is lovely seeing the familiar faces of our clients who are sharing our journey with us.

At home, I have a young daughter and a Labrador which keep me very busy in my 'spare' time. There's always an adventure to be had with those two. If I manage to catch a second to myself, I love to play netball, have a catch up and gossip with my friends and, of course, enjoy a sofa day with some chocolate and a good box-set!
In practice, my main loves are medical nursing, pharmacology, nutrition, tabby cats & of course, Labradors! I plan to study further qualifications in these interest areas to increase my knowledge to share with all of our clients - so watch this space!

Sarah has been working in veterinary practice for the last eight years and has been working at Newark Vets4Pets since it’s opening in April 2018. As the Practice Manager, Sarah ensures that that the highest level of customer service is maintained and is heavily involved in the management of the team and the business.

Sarah has two children, one dog and one cat, which makes for a busy life. She is a keen horse rider and swimmer.

I’m Emma, one of the Client Care Advisers here at the Newark Vets4Pets Practice. I’m new to the practice and team and it’s already become a special place to be; not only working alongside a great enthusiastic team but meeting clients (existing & new) with their precious animals on a daily basis. I absolutely love the interaction and communication that comes along with this job role. 

Every day is different from helping clients bringing their pets in for operations to first  vaccinations on kittens/puppies, to having a tiny hamster brought in to be examined by our vet.   I have learnt so much already about animals and caring for them. I can honestly say I’m in a job where I get the best of both worlds. I can’t count the amounts of times each day I must say “argh, how cute!”

I joined Vets4Pets in June 2019 and I have enjoyed every second. I love my new role with Vets4Pets and have settled in well,; the best part is the cuddles from our clients’ furbabies!

I trained at Northern Racing College back in 2007 which kick started my career with horses in a variety of different places up and down the country but I am now settled with my family in Lincoln.

One day in hopefully the not so distant future I am hope to train as a veterinary nurse.

At home I have two cats (Porsha and Kiwi), four fish tanks of various sizes, fifty snakes of various species, one Crested Gecko (Lucky who I found in a car park) and two Mossy frogs - they certainly keep me busy.

Outside of work I enjoy spending time with the family outside in all weathers, we enjoy climbing, watersports, walking and swimming. You name it, we probably do it!
