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 started at Vet4Pets 14 years ago, working as an Animal Nursing Assistant, before starting my training to become a Registered Veterinary Nurse. Since qualifying I have also become the practice manager and a 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 two cats in the family 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 joined Vets4pets in 2018 and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2021.
I love taking care of all the patients we see here but have a soft spot for the cats!
Within my nursing I have a huge passion for anything feline especially feline anaesthesia and feline nursing. I recently gained the ISFM nursing certificate and am currently studying for the ISFM advanced behaviour for veterinary professionals.
Oliver and Dodger are my naughty cats who keep me busy at home.
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.
I have recently joined Vets4Pets as a Veterinary Care Assistant in February 2024.
I have worked in the Veterinary industry for many years and enjoy the different aspects of looking after the animals to full health and also dealing with client queries on the desk and answering the phone.
I have one rescue dog at home, a lurcher cross called Cooper.
Outside of work I enjoy going to Zumba classes, travelling to new places and going for walks with family and friends.
