Our cancellation and fail to attend policy

We have been experiencing a large increase in clients failing to attend appointments over recent months. Each fail to attend means there is another patient who could have been seen sooner who needed our help. We have had to implement a cancellation and fail to attend policy. This means that you need to contact us before we close the day preceding your appointment if you wish to reschedule. Any failures to attend will incur certain fees. Thank you for your understanding.

Hello, my name is Iva, I am originally from Bulgaria. I have a Masters degree in Veterinary medicine, which I earned in 2011. I come from a pet mad family with both my Dad and Sister also working as Vets and my Mum working as a zoo engineer. After graduating as a Vet I began working with my Dad with small animals and poultries. I have a special interest in Neurology and Veterinary Dentistry. in 2014 I achieved an Honour Code Certificate in 'Fundamentals of Clinical Trials' from Harvard, USA. In January 2015 I achieved a Level 5 Diploma in Veterinary Practice Management at the Institute of Leadership and Management London. For me it's a real privilege to be a vet and to help the patients stay healthy and happy. In my spare time I love to spend time with my family and visit new places.

Being born in a vet family i have always known i'm going to be a vet one day. 

I used to work in a veterinary laboratory and was helping my dad who is a vet too.

I enjoy all aspects of companion animal medicine and my specific area of interest is Ophtalmology, Internal medicine and Surgery.

Outside of work i enjoy going out for walks and spending time with my family.

Hi! My name is Ángela and I studied veterinary medicine in Cáceres, Extremadura, Spain.

I’ve known I wanted to be a vet since I was 2 years old, when I used to say I was going to be an “animal doctor”. I also grew up surrounded by pets (at least 3 dogs and a cat!).

During my years in Cáceres I became particularly interested in internal medicine, as I spent 3 years as an intern in that area.

Outside my work place I enjoy outdoors activities, all kinds of sports, music and films.

Although I am interested in hematology, hepatobiliary system, endocrinology, and nephrology, I have clinical experience in diagnostic imaging and surgery.

Hi, my name is Nick! I used to work as a team leader at Coca-Cola, but my passion for animals has brought me here to Vets4Pets. I work as a VCA and help with managing the practice with my wife Iva. I particularly enjoy assisting the veterinary surgeon in theatre, and I am studying towards a level 2 award in anaesthesia and sedation to further my skills.

I have had animals all my life and I currently own a German shepherd called Rex. I love working with animals and couldn't think of anything more rewarding.

Martin

Practice Manager

Read Martin bio

My name is Martin and I am Practice Manager at Oxford Cowley Vets4Pets. I graduated BA in Business Administration and MSc in Human Resources. I`ve decided to join the Team because I have desire for customer service and new challenges.

When I was a child I was dreaming of becoming a vet but the life offered me something else. Now I am a step closer to my childhood dream, for sure is not the same doing the front office job but I still have contact with our patients and I really enjoy working with them. I am taking care of two pets at home so taking care of hundreds more is like a mission and passion.

Client Care Manager

Read Alice bio

My name is Alice and I am the Client Care Manager and Veterinary Care Assistant here at Oxford Cowley Vets4Pets! I live in Oxford with my partner and our beautiful Jack Russell/Dachshund cross, Daisy. Our lovely Daisy suffers from a fair few health issues and my experiences with her have helped me to connect with our clients, as I understand how difficult it is to see our pets unwell!

Working at the vets is a very rewarding job, though it does come with its fair share of challenges! I have a Level 2 Certificate in assisting veterinary surgeons in the monitoring of animal patients under anaesthesia and sedation, the course helped me learn so much and I enjoy using those skills in practice. I love learning new things and I am always on the lookout for my next project or course! My dream is to eventually become a Veterinary Nurse so I can help as many animals as possible (as cliché as that sounds!)

Dean

Head Receptionist

Read Dean bio

I’m Dean, Head veterinary receptionist who loves every moment spent in the company of animals. With qualifications in nutrition and animal behaviour, I’m dedicated to helping pet owners make informed choices about their furry friends’ diets and addressing their unique needs.

When I’m not at work, I love traveling, whether it’s a weekend camping trip or an international adventure, I’m always seeking new experiences and cultures. Football is my go-to for fun and relaxation. I enjoy playing with friends on the weekends, bringing my energetic spirit and friendly competitiveness to the field. I believe in the power of teamwork, and every match turns into a fun social event. I also have a love for tattoos, appreciating them as a form of self-expression and art. Each piece I have tells a story or represents something meaningful to me, and I’m always on the lookout for new designs that resonate with my journey.

At home, I share my life with two wonderful cats. Asparuh, my wise adult tabby, loves to lounge by the window and observe the world, while my playful young cat, Nero, adds a whirlwind of energy and mischief to our cozy home. Together, they create a lively atmosphere that balances my adventurous spirit with the comforts of home.

My name is Jess and I am a receptionist at Oxford Cowley Vets4Pets! I have previously been working in retail logistics but recently decided to follow my dream and start working in a veterinary practice. I have always had a passion for animals and even ran my own pet sitting business for many years alongside my retail job. One day I would like to train to become a veterinary nurse and I am taking my first steps here in Vets4Pets!

I have recently moved to Oxford with my partner and our very fluffy boy Iggy, an angora lionhead rabbit who I rescued as a baby. Outside of work, I enjoy spending time with my family, travelling as much as possible and attending music concerts and festivals.

Dear Valued Clients,

As we celebrate our 10th anniversary at Oxford Cowley Vets4Pets, I want to take a moment to express our heartfelt gratitude to you. This journey has been truly amazing, and I am deeply thankful to everyone who has supported us along the way. It fills me with joy to be surrounded by such devoted and pet-loving individuals.

Being a family-owned practice as part of the larger Pets Family and achieving the title of the top veterinary clinic in Oxford on this milestone would not have been possible without your trust and support. Our diverse and inclusive team reflects our commitment to providing exceptional care.

Over the past decade, we’ve had the privilege of sharing countless moments filled with joy, laughter, and heart warming connections with both our beloved patients and their devoted owners. Together, we’ve navigated challenges, always striving to provide the best for your furry companions. Through every obstacle, our commitment to delivering the highest standard of care has never wavered.

As we look to the future, I am filled with optimism and determination to continue our mission in the years ahead. I extend my heartfelt gratitude to each of you for your invaluable contributions to this remarkable journey.

Warm regards,
