Watford Century Vets4Pets

I graduated from Edinburgh in 2004 having also read zoology at UCL and have been working as a small animal veterinary surgeon ever since. Work initially took me to South Wales and then Kent before covering the length and breadth of England as a locum for the last 3 ½ years. I am thrilled to have the opportunity now to branch out on my own and am looking forward to meeting the animals, and their families, of Watford. I am currently owned by a young Irish terrier called Hattie who keeps me on my toes and believes she is the boss of all that she surveys. When I am not working or busy with Hattie entertainment, I enjoy reading, going to the theatre and travelling, although I suspect the travels will have to be kept within the UK for the foreseeable future.

Hello, I'm Punit. I graduated from Bristol University in July after studying Animal Science at Nottingham. After 8 years at university, I am loving life as a vet so far!

 

My current veterinary interests lie in small animal surgery and neurology; and I love working with animals of all different shapes, sizes and colours!

 

Outside of the veterinary practice, I like to keep myself fit and healthy by going to the gym and playing football. I also love superheroes and enjoy reading comic books and watching films. Finally, I am interested in photography and you will often catch me taking photos of your furry friends.

Hello, I’m Charlotte. I’ve always had a love of animals and knew I wanted to work with them from a young age. I graduated from Middlesex University in 2012 as a qualified Veterinary Nurse and I have since worked in a number of large practices. I joined Vets4Pets in March 2017 as their Head Nurse. You will mainly see me for nurse consults, however I also care for your pets when they have to stay with us. At home I have two Guinea Pigs, Abra and Omi, as well as my hand-reared kitten Henry (at 10 years old I’m not sure I can still call him that!). I look forward to meeting you and your pets!

Hi, my name is Adrienne and I joined the team at Vets4Pets in September 2018. I qualified as a veterinary nurse in October 2017 and over the years have gained experience in many different aspects of nursing including anaesthesia, emergency and critical care and diagnostic imaging. Although I love all species I have recently taken a keen interest in feline specific medicine and am looking forward to developing my knowledge in this area - especially as I meet so many of your lovely cats when I am consulting!

At home we have a very cute cat called Cake and two mischievous terrier-cross dogs, Albie and Casper. When I'm not at the practice, I can usually be found snuggling up with them watching a film.

Hi I’m Izzy, I have always had a keen interest in animals and I have owned many pets over the years.

I studied animal care and management at college and then went on to do a degree in Zoology. I hope one day to become a veterinary nurse. I have always worked with animals from a pet shop to a rescue centre.

I love my job and the animals and people I meet. My main interests are small animals and exotics.

My human is Emily, the vet, and I come to work with her every day. She claims it’s so I’m not left on my own, I say it’s so I can keep an eye on proceedings and make sure everything is ship-shape. I work on the principle that everyone loves me (who wouldn’t) and greet everyone with a bounce. I am the official treat tester to ensure only the best is stocked in the consult rooms and at reception. When I’m not checking that everyone is doing their jobs properly I can be found with my faithful chewy bone or practising my most elegant photo poses – on my back, legs in the air is my current favourite.

Hello! I'm Lauren, I've currently been working in the Veterinary industry for over three years. During this time I've learnt a lot, most importantly to make a team like ours happy all you seem to need is Krispy Kreme Doughnuts and a large collection of hidden pens!

If I'm not at work I normally try to keep my day relaxed, but this is pretty difficult with a 3 year old Boxer at home called Cooper who isn't happy unless he's up to no good.

People always ask why I enjoy my job so much, and the team I work with help but it's definitely got to be what seems like an endless supply of puppies and kittens. Puppy cuddles always make my day a lot brighter. Well that's me, look forward to meeting you.

Hello, I'm Fran. I have been working in the Veterinary Industry for a little over 4 years now. 

I have been to college to study a VCA course and I am currently working at Vets4Pets as a VCA, and I am hoping to progress as a Veterinary Nurse in the future. I have wanted to work with animals from a young age, so being given the chance to fulfil my aspirations is amazing. 

Outside of work, I own 2 Cats and 1 Dog: Tipsy - The 3 Legged Tortoiseshell Sophie - The grumpy ginger Layla - The crazy Rottweiler X There is never a dull moment in my house thanks to my furry friends - but I wouldn't have it any other way!
