Advanced services
We have invested considerably in our team and kit to make a number of advanced services available to our clients. We also accept referrals from other practices.
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.
Ultrasound
We are pleased to be able to offer ultrasound scanning in practice, which is a painless way to look inside your pet’s body to find out what’s going on.

Meet the team


My name is Simon I am the Practice Manager here at North Tyneside vets4pets. I have a keen interest in business and performance management with a track record dealing with large teams & organisations. I am lucky to live in Northumberland and appreciate the beautiful surroundings that we have here. We love our animals from dogs, cats, horses and our ladies the chickens who provide fresh eggs daily. Lets not forget my Bee`s too. My interests over the years has been property development, golfing and motorbikes.
We have a fantastic team at our practices who care passionately about the job they do and I am very proud to be part of that.

Hi my name is Sach, I was born and raised in London where I often spent my weekends volunteering in reptile dens. I studied in Nottingham where my time was split between Vet School and delivering pizzas for Dominos! I eventually settled down in my favourite part of the UK (Blyth) and I am privileged to have been welcomed into the Vets4Pets team in 2019.
As a vet I understand that you’re the expert when it comes to your pet, I see myself as the specialist in diagnosis and treatment, but working together we can ensure that your little one is always kept in tip-top condition. I love all creatures great and small but hold a special place in my heart for rabbits and reptiles. I also really enjoy internal medicine or any aspects of veterinary medicine that challenges me to put my 'thinking cap' on.
Outside of work I enjoy spending time on the beach with my wife and twin girls. I also love running and often take part in The Great North Run, marathons and other endurance events. I look forward to meeting you all soon!

I am from South Africa and I have been working at Vets4pets North Tyneside for 4 years now. I became a vet because I wanted to help people by helping their animals.
I have a certificate in Emergency Medicine and Surgery. I enjoy Surgery, Endoscopy and Dentals.
I have 2 cats (but I am actually a dog person) and over 60 house plants! My passion outside of work is horses and I am usually at the yard in my free time. I also enjoy reading and various crafts including stained glass work and taxidermy!

I qualified as a Veterinary Surgeon in 2007 and joined the team here in 2024. I am passionate about all aspects of general practice with particular interest in Imaging and Feline Medicine.
I moved to the area in 2012 and fell in love with the North East and it's people and their pets.
I live with my 2 cats Root and Shaw and when I am not at home spending time with them I enjoy walking, bird watching, Photography and singing in a Choir.

I started working at North Tyneside Vet4Pets in 2019 as a Animal Care Assistant. I then progressed onto studying Veterinary Nursing, qualifying as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2023.
At home I have 3 wonderful crazy Labradors who I love to go on lots of adventures with. We have a campervan and like to go away travelling all over as much as we can.

I am the Senior Client Care Advisor here at Vets4pets North Tyneside. I started as a volunteer several years ago and have just celebrated 10 years at the practice!
I love meeting the clients and their pets watching them grow and getting lots of cuddles. I work with a great team and there are never two days the same. When I’m not at work I love spending time with my grandchildren and my crazy labrador Chester.

It may be cliche, but I truly love my job! I enjoy meeting all the families and their pets - wagging tails, toe beans and scales...I love them all!
As a mother and a pet owner my life is always busy but I wouldn't have it any other way.
When I do find the time for myself I love being outdoors. I also enjoy figure skating, which is still a relatively new hobby of mine.
I take pride in overseeing reception and ensuring we continue to provide a gold-standard service. We have an amazing team and I am confident I will be here to greet you all for many years to come!
