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 and fracture repair

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.

I qualified as a vet from Nottingham University and, together with Jenny, I am a partner at Rugby Central and Rugby Vets4Pets. I truly enjoy working with our wonderful team and meeting all the lovely pets and the owner’s that trust us to look after them. My home life very much reflects my work life as I’m known for a being a bit of a soft touch and have acquired many waifs and strays through working as a vet, including Murphy, a Romanian Shepherd and numerous cats and guinea pigs.

A Rugby lass born and bred,

Helen is extremely well read.

Her medical knowledge blows us away,

Sharing tips with the team every day.

Her focus and attention is clear to see,

She loves all creatures even a bee.

Giving clients and patients her very best,

Even if it means she gets no rest.

Her rapunzel locks are her trade mark look,

You'll often find her reading a book.

Calm and serene she leads by example,

Her knowledge and skills are more than ample.

Our super head nurse is dedicated,

But always ensure her tea is decaffeinated!

Cuddles and smiles she will always bring.

For the cats and exotics - her favourite thing,

Paperwork and inboxes fit to burst,

Yet she ensures pets always come first!

Laura Mann we wouldn't be without,

A dream to work with there is no doubt.

In 2017 she joined our team,

As a CCA she found her feet,

And every client she would gladly meet,

An infectious laugh for all to hear,

No challenge too big when she is near,

But she knew her passion lied elsewhere,

Helping and assisting with lots of care,

An ANA she's studying to be,

We're so pleased for our Kirstie.

Student Veterinary Nurse

Read Sammie Orton bio

A kennel assistant she started as,

Until lockdown encouraged her back to class.

Splitting her time between work and study,

Learning new skills with Nadine her buddy.

She's kind and caring what more do you need,

That magical sparkle is Sammie indeed.

During consultations you may see her around,

Always with a smile and never a frown.

As a student nurse there’s lots of learning to do,

But before you know it she'll be an RVN too!

A friendly face she'll greet you with a smile,

Bev is one who goes that extra mile.

From first vaccinations to sad goodbyes,

She'll be there for all she wouldn't deny.

Every patient can steal her heart,

A little terrier she couldn't part.

In need of a drink she'll be there with the kettle,

Or a box of tissues if you're found in a fettle.

On the end of the phone she’s a welcoming voice,

Our CCA Bev she is everyone’s choice.

Our mum of three she has lots to do,

Not forgetting a small zoo too!

Efficient and friendly she'll answer the phone,

Always on hand you're never alone.

A warm welcome she gives as you walk through the door,

With treats for the dogs as they sit on the floor.

A soft spot for a staffy just like her own,

If only she could take everyone home.

Her hard work and effort is second to none,

From serious moments to lots of fun.

Lush locks and gorgeous nails,

She's our CCA who doesn't fail.

A mum of one soon to be two,

Oh how the last 4 years flew.

From front of house to patient care,

Nadine has done her fair share.

Nothing seems too much trouble,

Even in the hustle and bustle.

Learning lots and helping out,

A star at work without a doubt.

Lucy Harris

Practice Manager

In 2016 we found Lucy-Jo,

What was to follow we didn't know.

As lead CCA she really flourished,

Ensuring the team was working and polished.

During lockdown she really stood out,

Promoted to Practice Manager without any doubt.

Now she helps and looks after us all,

Ensuring our best and that we don't fall.

Her priority is our clients care,

To be number one for pets everywhere.

Lead Client Care Advisor

Her name is Yvette but she's not the Vet!

She'll do her best for sure, that’s a bet.

Lead CCA is her title,

Her Client Care Advice is vital.

No matter the day she is lovely,

Full of life and very bubbly.

Insurance claims are her domain,

She does her upmost not to complain.

Any question big or small,

She'll go beyond to answer them all.

Emilia is like one of our own.

Joining the team in '21,

She really knows how to have fun.

As a new client care advisor,

She has the whole team behind her.

Her career with us has just begun.

Learning lots and quickly too,

Her welcome smile is waiting for you.

Animal Nursing Assistant

Read Helen Shanks bio

Full of laughter and such glee,

Rarely is she seen to be unhappy,

Assisting the nurses is her role,

The hospital wards she will patrol,

Prepping and cleaning the practice through,

The job list is endless, whoever knew,

Her love for animals is always on display,

Dealing with every challenge in her way.

Her personality is so bright,

But she is also full of might.
