Branch Partner and Veterinary Surgeon

I graduated in 2011 in Romania and began my career in general practice, where I gained valuable experience for two years. In 2014, I moved to the UK and have since specialised in small animal practice. I took on my current role as Branch Partner in Chelmsford in 2016, where I thrive on the challenges and opportunities that come my way. Currently, I am studying for the CertAVP in Small Animal Medicine to further enhance my expertise and deliver the best care possible to my patients. While I don’t have any pets of my own at the moment, I channel all my love for animals into my work and am deeply dedicated to the well-being of every patient I treat.

Services we offer

With our 15-minute consultations, you have enough time to ask our expert vets any - and every - question you might have regarding your pet’s health and lifestyle.

Your local Medivet practice will be able to issue an Animal Health Certificate for EU travel.

Some of our practices have been awarded cat-friendly clinic status by the International Society of Feline Medicine (ISFM).

Caring for all aspects of your pet’s oral health is easy with our excellent dental facilities.

An electrocardiogram (ECG) is a simple, non-invasive test used to detect certain defects in your pet’s heart.

These glands release a smelly fluid which helps your pet to mark their territory and communicate with other dogs. But sometimes they can become blocked and infected. At Medivet our clinics can help with routine gland expression, making sure your pet stays comfortable and healthy.

We know that sometimes it just isn’t possible for you or your pet to travel into one of our practices to receive care. At times like this, our capable and compassionate veterinary teams often offer at home visits.

Quick and efficient testing at our state-of-the-art in-house laboratories is just one aspect of the exceptional care we offer.

Medivet Labs is dedicated to providing a quality diagnostic laboratory service to the veterinary profession using modern technology combined with professional excellence and personal care.

Receive expert advice from our experienced nurses on keeping your pet healthy and happy.
