Laura Steel

Veterinary Surgeon

BVM&S MRCVS

Read Laura Steel bio

I qualified from Edinburgh in 1993 and have worked in Small Animal Practice since graduating.

I had my own practice for 18 years but with increasing paperwork and management demands, gave it up at the end of 2018 to get back to clinical practice.

I’m a very experienced medic and surgeon able to do a wide range of general and complex procedures, so there’s little that’s possible in general practice that I can’t or won’t do, but always with respect to the owners wishes.

I also love rabbit and ‘small furry’ medicine & surgery and I’m enjoying seeing the large number of these patients we have here as well as all the dogs & cats.

I intend to stay at Vets4Pets for the rest of my career and hope to see the practice flourish with what myself and the team have to offer you and your pet.

I’m Steven, the Practice Manager and Head Veterinary Nurse here at Bolton Central. I started my career in the Veterinary industry in 2008 where I began nursing in private independent practice. I joined the Vets4Pets group roughly 5 years ago and headed over to Bolton Central to manage the day-to-day running of the surgery in February 2018. I still enjoy nursing where I can and have a keen interest in surgical and anaesthesia nursing. At home, I have a Dachshund X called Arlo along with two cats Eric & Chandler. In my spare time I enjoy socialising with family & friends, camping and also playing snooker & pool.

My name is Yuliia and I’m happy to be a part of Vets4Pets family. I came all the way from Ukraine, carrying a lot of passion for animals and willing to help every little paw possible. I love traveling, photography and bright colours (you can try and guess my next hair colour haha but even I don’t know it yet). You can see me around giving cuddles to cute doggos and cats in between of my Head Receptionist duties. Can’t wait to meet all of you and your furry friends.

Hi, my name is Sophie. I joined Vets4Pets as a receptionist in March 2018. Since being a child I have always had pets from fish, to most small animals, chickens and dogs. At the moment I have a Pomeranian, 1 year old who is called Coco. I am excited to be working at Vets4Pets, being able to learn new skills and experience in administration and customer service whilst having the opportunity to work with animals, which is my passion! In my spare time I enjoy going out with family and friends, festivals and going on plenty of holidays.

Hello, my name is Hannah. I’m a Pet Health Advisor here at Bolton Central Vets4Pets. I have always wanted to work with animals since I was younger. I studied Animal Management at college and then went onto do a degree in Animal Behaviour. I enjoy developing my knowledge on different animal’s needs and behaviours whilst working here at the practice! I have a Staffy called Ozzie and over the years have had several cats, guinea pigs and fish. In my spare time I like to spend time with my family and friends. I also enjoy taking Ozzie for long walks.

Amber

Client Care Advisor

Read Amber bio

Hello! My name is Amber and I’m the newest member of the reception team. Growing up in the countryside I’ve had a passion for all things animal and nature related from a young age. As I have gotten older my enthusiasm has only grown and I have been very lucky enough to have had the opportunity to start my career within the veterinary field. I have previous experience as a veterinary care assistant at another Vets4Pets practice and am very happy to now be able to offer my knowledge to all the wonderful clients and pets here at Bolton Central.

When I’m not at work you can usually find me out walking with my family or baking in the kitchen. I’ve had a menagerie of animals over the years but currently only have my cat Twinkle and my dog Bella (and they’re more than enough!) Whether it has scales, antennae, feathers or fur you can guarantee that I’ll love them all and I can’t wait to make new animal and human friends along the way on this new adventure.
