Meet the team
I have been a practice partner at Shrewsbury Vets4Pets since 2007. I love working at the surgery and getting to know all our patients, assisted by our friendly and caring team of colleagues. I enjoy the variety of being a vet but I have a special interest in orthopaedics and cardiology. Outside of work I am kept busy running our small farm with my wife and 3 boys. We currently have 4 cats, 2 dogs, lots of sheep, cows, pigs and chickens.
My favorite animal is hard to choose but probably cats. I seem to be building up a collection of different colors... So far I have a tabby, a big black cat, a small black cat, a ginger boy, and a very pretty ginger and white girl. You can never have too many cats, and I don't have a black & white one yet...
As well as my cats, I also have 2 collies - Timmy and Kiera. Plus we keep sheep, cows, pigs, chickens and turkeys on our small holding.
I love working for vets4Pets because it means I get to know some of the pets, and their owners, who we see regularly. It's always nice to see the dogs who have been coming here since puppies, pulling their owners across the car park as they're so keen to come and visit us! (perhaps the jar of biscuits at reception has something to do with that!)
I qualified from RVC London in 1990. I have worked in small animal practices in the South of England until moving to Wales 12 years ago. More recently I have joined Vets4Pets and I am delighted to be part of such as great dedicated and supportive team – everyone equally passionate about providing the best possible care for pets.
Like most vets I have had a good variety of fury and feathered members of the family but my favourite is my ex-feral cat Sooty who has grown to love his cuddles. Outside of work I enjoy gardening, playing violin and being an administrator for Montgomery Youth Music Charity.
When I was 13 I had a real bond with my friend's Jack Russel, Ivy, and it was a combination of her and my love of all creatures big and small at the riding stables where I spent my weekends and holidays, that made me want to be a vet.
I graduated from Edinburgh in 2006, and then worked in mixed practice in Cornwall for nearly 8 years, before moving back to my home town Shrewsbury. Before returning I completed a Certificate in Small Animal Medicine, but equally love doing surgery! I enjoy the variety and challenge of general practice, and love working with a great team at vets 4 pets who are all determined to do their best for our clients and our patients.
I've had to retire my kitesurfing kit and gig rowing gloves since moving back to Shrewsbury. A lot of my time is now taken up looking after my two young sons, but when time allows I also love to walk, climb, swim, cycle, do yoga and take photographs.
At home I have an 11 year-old whippet, Rupert, who was bred by a nurse I used to work with. Our days of doing agility together are sadly over now, but he's a joy, and the perfect dog for our family!
I have worked in both New Zealand and South East England so have seen a nice variety of pets. I am definitely a dog person but love our feline friends as well. We are currently pet-less but on the look out for a puppy - no doubt it'll only be a matter of time before one catches my eye that comes into the vets!
Outside of work I can be found both running after my toddler or actual running, or playing violin in Shrewsbury Symphony Orchestra.
Vets4Pets Shrewsbury is a lovely caring team of people. They're a wonderful fun bunch of colleagues to work with and it's a pleasure to come to work!
I started at Vet4Pets 12 years ago, working as an Animal Nursing Assistant, before starting my training to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse. Since qualifying I have also become practice partner alongside Jonathan. On any give day you could see me on reception, in clinics, in theatre or in the office - I enjoy all my varied roles responsibilities!
I work here because I love animals.... I currently have one dog and one cat but have previously had other dogs and cats before them as well as fish, hamsters and guinea pigs. All my cats have been rescued through work and have chosen me I'd say! I'm sure there will be more to come my way!
I am really grateful for the wonderful people I work with and for the lovely clients who chose to come to see us here. They make coming to work a pleasure.
I have worked for vets4pets for 3 years, and prior to that I was a VCA at a mixed animal practice in mid Wales. I am due to sit my final practical exams in March, after which I will hopefully become an RVN.
I recently joined the practice & have relished every moment so far on my journey to qualify as a Registered Veterinary Nurse. At home, my Labradoodle Cadbury keeps me busy ... he's never far from mischief! Our favourite place to be is the Cornish coast (throwing many a tennis ball) with the sand in our toes.
I have worked at Vets4Pets for several years and enjoy meeting and talking to both existing and new clients alike and of course seeing their gorgeous pets
When I’m not at work I enjoy spending time with my friends and family, taking bolt on exciting adventures - especially in the rain, we love the puddles. And finally being at home watching Disney films is where I’m at my happiest.
Hello! I am incredibly grateful to have started working here at Vets4Pets, to be surrounded by both colleagues and clients who clearly love animals. I could not be happier to be surrounded by other like-minded people.
At home, I have an 11-year old Jack Russell called Charlie, although I do have a deep fondness for cats.
In my spare time, I love to read a wide variety of books, and I also do volunteering at a local cat rescue.
