I graduated from the University of Veterinary Medicine in 2009 and have worked a few years in several Small Animal Practices and Hospitals in Bucharest, Romania and London.
In 2016 I realised I wanted a new challenge - to have my own practice where I can provide animal medicine service in my own way, at high standards.
I completed a Certificate of Specialisation in Small Animal Veterinary Medicine and I am due to sit my exam in October.
I always loved animals and they are an important part of our lives so I strongly believe we should treat them as we treat each other.
I am very fulfilled that I am a vet and am able to have the opportunity to help animals, and I do so with all my dedication and passion for their welfare.
I am looking forward to meeting you and your small furry companions and I promise they will be cared for by myself and my team as we would our own pets.

Yours sincerely,
Andreea Ionescu - MRCVS & OWNER Vets4Pets Pontypridd

Hi I'm Nia,  I am the Head Veterinary Nurse here at Vets4Pets Pontypridd.
I have been working in veterinary medicine for 10 years now, 8 of those here in Pontypridd.
I have always loved animals and knew I wanted to work with them in some capacity and when I learnt about Veterinary Nursing I knew this was the job for me! I love meeting all of your pets and watching them grow and helping look after them during their visits!
In my spare time I play Flag American Football and horse ride when I can!

Hello! My name is Talia,

I have worked in the veterinary industry for over 5 years, dealing with a range of complex cases day to day. I decided to go into the veterinary industry because of my love and compassion for animals. I pride myself in giving gold standard care to all of my patients. I have always had an interest in veterinary as I grew up in a farming and equine environment, which naturally led me pursuing this job.

In free time I like to travel and ride my horses!

Hi, I'm Amie and I have been working here at Vets4Pets Pontypridd since September 2020. I began my time as a student Veterinary Care Assistant on placement and then got offered a job as Receptionist where I then became Head Receptionist after a few months. Before coming here I worked as a mental health support worker but decided to chase my dream after a change in home life. I am currently on my last year as a Student Veterinary Nurse and will be taking my OSCEs (practical exam) in November 2024 to hopefully become a Registered Veterinary Nurse. 
 
At home, I live with my wife, two children and our two dogs Charlie and Louie. Charlie is a miniature Yorkshire terrier who at 13 years old still thinks she is a puppy and Louie who is an Irish greyhound who we rescued in September 2023. He has settled in very well to home life after never experiencing this before and is now a very spoilt boy. 
 
Working at Vets4Pets Pontypridd has been a pleasure the past few years, finally getting to do what I love and working with a great team of people.

Head Receptionist

Read Amy Jones bio

Hi, I'm Amy (AKA Jonesy) and I have been here at Vets4Pets Pontypridd since April 2022. I began as a Receptionist and have recently been made Head Receptionist this year. I used to work in retail but have always wanted to work with animals, so when I saw the opportunity here, I had to go for it and have enjoyed it ever since. 
 
At home, I live with my partner and 2 cats Patrick and Sawyer. We acquired Patrick when a client brought him in but sadly didn't have the capacity to fund the treatment for him, so we took him on as a practice but I soon fell in love with him and wanted to take him home. 
 
In my spare time, I love to spend time with my family and socialising at my local pub watching sports. I love working with the team here as I'm surrounded by like-minded people who want the best for our pets.
