Medivet Boston

Gemma Cotton

Head Veterinary Nurse

I joined the practice in 2006 after graduating with a Biology degree and found my perfect career in veterinary nursing combining my love of science and animals. I qualified as an RVN in 2011 from the College of Animal Welfare. As Head Nurse I enjoy my time caring for the patients as well as the organisational tasks of ensuring the smooth running of the practice. Outside of work, I love walking my scruffy terrier Doris, gardening and yoga.

Donna Chester O'Niell

Patient Care Assistant

I have a National Diploma in Animal Care and have been a qualified care assistant for many years. I joined the practice 13 years ago after leaving school. In my spare time I play hockey locally and for the East of England team. I rescued my lovely adventure dog a year ago after he was abandoned at the practice. I'm happiest when I'm on the beach with my wife and dog.

Nikita Todd

Patient Care Assistant

I started working at the practice as a receptionist in March 2015, whilst also studying for a degree in Psychology with counselling. Once my degree was completed, I then went on to start my vet nursing journey by becoming a Patient Care Assistant in October 2020. Alongside my role as a PCA I am responsible for processing insurance claims and helping clients with their pet insurance queries, which I really enjoy. I love nursing and working with animals and from a young age I have always known that this is what I wanted to do. Outside of work I enjoy birdwatching, needle felting and have a great love for all things Wildlife-related. At home I have two cats, called Hilda and Frida, and a Zebra Finch called Skadi.

Ellie Brason

I joined the practice in 2011 and gained my Veterinary Nursing Diploma through the College of Animal Welfare whilst working here as a student nurse, qualifying in 2016. I live in Boston with my husband and two young children, and have two cats called Trilby and Alan. My favourite part about my job is running Nurse Clinics and seeing regular patients and their owner's, who I get to build a good rapport with. A highlight of my career was volunteering in India working with street animals.
