Rosie knew from a very young age that she wanted to become a vetβ€”a passion that has shaped her entire life. Her family supported her passion in many ways, including breeding labradors and allowing Rosie to help with their care. Rosie holds a veterinary degree along with postgraduate certificates in both dermatology and surgery and brings a wealth of experience and dedication to her role. Clients often comment on Rosie's genuine love of animals and her commitment to going above and beyond to help their pets. Her calm, compassionate approach helps build strong bonds with both patients and their owners, and her expertise ensures each animal receives the very best care.

Rosie was amazing with Dexter for his health check … including getting down on the floor to do everything to save him the stress of being put on the table. It’s great to see a vet who isn’t just doing their job but loves animals & wants them to have the best / stress free experience possible πŸ’–

I love this Vet and very pleased I found it. I was not rushed at all and got the attention and time I needed for my pets. Reasonably priced-not like other places who wants to rip your off.Here-it is all about the Pet and not the money. My pets were so relaxed during the visit-I was pleased to see. Our vet Rosie was very knowledgeable and caring-she is the best ever and trully loves animals. Thank you so much! X
