A Little Bit About Us

We have four partners across our three practices, two of which are vets, a RVN and practice manager. This allows us to advocate for each role within our practices and sets us aside from our competitors. We get you, we know how you feel.

Between our three practices we are fifty colleagues strong and strive each and every day to deliver clinical excellence, as well as create the best possible client experience.

How do we do this? We believe in teamwork and we live each day by our practice values, we treat others how we would like to be treated, we have each other’s backs, we have fun, we laugh (a lot), we have excellent communication, we encourage each other and most importantly we allow one another balance, between work and life. We know each person is different and what inspires and motivates one person, doesn’t necessarily do the same for someone else, that’s why we tailor our packages and rotas to each individual colleague to make it personal.

We believe in being flexible, understanding and compassionate and we pride ourselves on this. We truly have a wonderful team so finding the ‘right’ person is very important to us.
