Joe Elliott

Veterinary Surgeon

Hi, I'm Joe! I qualified from the University of Nottingham in 2020 and have worked at Medivet Chorley since October 2021. I have a passion for surgery, and can perform both advanced soft tissue and orthopaedic procedures. I am also doing a further qualification in small animal surgery. In my spare time I enjoy watching sports, going to the gym, and long walks with my Border Collie Storm.

Elizabeth Joseph

Veterinary Surgeon

After completing my post graduate degree in Veterinary Medicine from Kerala, India, I moved to U.K. and received my MRCVS in 2005. Since then I have been working as a small animal vet initially in Birmingham, then in the North West and finally settled in Medivet Chorley in 2018. I enjoy all aspects of small animal work with interest in both medicine and surgery equally. Outside of work, I enjoy fell walking, gardening, a bit of baking, watching movies and spending time with my family and friends . I grew up with lots of animals back home in India. Currently, I have some beautiful Koi carps in my garden pond, but over the years, I had two beloved cats; Kitkat and Caramel and some beautiful canaries and finches too. I believe in the strong bond between human and animal and by helping an animal, helping a human too.

Veterinary Surgeon

Hi I’m Alison. I qualified as a vet from Glasgow University in 1991. I started in mixed practice at Hillcrest Chorley at the old Eaves Lane site! I then did a residency in feline medicine and a PhD in feline respiratory disease at Liverpool University before returning to general practice. I have spent most of my working life in veterinary practice in the North-West except for a couple of years in the pharmaceutical industry and a short period working in Australia. I returned to the Chorley practice in August 2023 where I work part-time. My particular areas of interest are internal medicine and feline shelter medicine. In my spare time I am a trustee and vet for Woodlands Animal Sanctuary, a charity in Holmeswood, Lancashire which focusses on cat rescue; I also enjoy gardening and spending time with my family and elderly Border Terrier!

Night Veterinary Surgeon

Hi, I'm Lucy and I'm one of the night vets at Chorley Medivet. I graduated from the University of Nottingham in 2021 and have been working in small animal practice since. My favourite part of the job is seeing patients that I've cared for go home to their owners after being unwell. Outside of work I enjoy hiking with my 2 dogs and rock climbing.

Staff were lovely, supportive, and helpful. Ive had previously bad experiences with different vets. But this practice has changed my opinion and outlook about my previous experiences. In an emergency didn’t hesitate to help my cat get the right treatment and reassured my stress and worry. Never been more appreciative, behalf of all loved pets, this is the place to register with. They will help regardless of time, staffing, and frantic pet lovers ❤️

In an absolute chaotic panic I had brought my cat in who had thrown up a worm. Assuming the worst had raced back home to collect my cat and get him to a vet. There’s were issues with the registering of my cat and was not able to find. There’s staff reassured me that this could be a serious issues but with my cat not loosing weight had caught it early. Understood my panic and anxiety with the whole thing as I wasn’t able to recover my cats registered information.
I’ve had bad experiences with vets previously, but the staff, company, everyone was so supportive, friendly and approachable. Not only had sorted my cat out but had warn us about which medication not to use what brands can cause harm to my cats.
I truly appreciate the help I have received. My cat and other cats are happy and healthy because of this vets ❤️

The only thing I would say is that the practice needs to be more open about their prices.i had to take my dog back for a follow up after having already paid for what I thought was the entire package only to receive a letter in the post saying I had to pay an additional cost.i was mortified.

I have been a customer of this practice for eight and half years now. Also previously (11 year break between - no dog).
It is an excellent practice. Always very caring - both to the pet and also the owner.
On this visit I was too ill to take my dog so my daughter took him. She was very happy with the service both she and my dog received.
Pity us humans can't avail ourselves of the service for care/treatment.

Had to take our cat Toby for emergency care tonight with his breathing. Literally from the minute we arrived they were waiting at the door for us because it was a breathing problem, took him straight in for oxygen. This isn’t our normal vet but we will be changing to this vet for future appointments. They were brilliant, gave us updates on how he was doing, let us see him, gave us advice. The care was 100%. The vet was brilliant and Yvonne the vet nurse was fantastic spent so much time with us to help make some difficult decisions, spoke through options etc she was so caring. We are not out of the woods just yet but they deserve a brilliant review for the care given so far. Thank you

I booked in my dog to see my favourite Vet Trina. I feel she knows my dog really well and always remembers his previous visits. Trina always treats my dog with care and I trust her opinions on his treatment plans.
