Wolverhampton Vets for Pets

I became a vet quite simply because I love animals. After five years at the Edinburgh Vet School I graduated in 1990 and joined a mixed veterinary practice for four years dealing with cats, dogs, horses and farm animals. During in this time I gained certification in Radiology. In 1994 I took up a position as resident in a Small Animal Surgery at Glasgow Vet School for two years and gained certification in Soft Tissue and Orthopaedic Surgery in cats and dogs. In 1996 I returned to work in practice at a large vets in Leicester and for the last ten years have been the lead referral surgeon in their hospital, accepting referrals from within the practice and from other vets in Leicestershire and the Midlands. Outside work my interests include walking my dog Sam, spending time with my family and astronomy and astrophysics. Worried that with age my brain might give up the ghost I started a degree in astrophysics from the Open University and graduated in 2009. I am excited to become a Joint Venture Partner because it gives me a chance to be my own boss and set the standards of care that I would expect for my own dog Sam, a 7 and a half year old black Labrador.

I qualified as a Veterinary Nurse is 1972 and worked for a large referral hospital in Leicester as a Head Veterinary Nurse for over 20 years. During this time I trained many students, I also lectured in radiography at a local college. I then decided to retire to enjoy my three granddaughters and Labrador Sam. Due to missing contact with clients and pets, I decided to return to work as a veterinary receptionist. In my spare time I enjoy crosswords, gardening and decorating.

After leaving school went on to work on a Welsh Cob stud and have now worked for Vets4pets since they first opened in Wolverhampton in 2014

I'm married to my long suffering husband Jon and have 2 amazing grown up children and 2 adorable grandaughters who I have driven crazy over tbe years with my obsession of Rock and indie music.
