Amy

Head Veterinary Nurse

I graduated from The Royal Veterinary College University of London in 2021 with a degree in Veterinary Nursing. I started at Medivet last July after relocating and leaving my first job at a 24 hour Veterinary Hospital. I love being part of the team at London Road, being the baby of the group has its perks! I have a keen interest in anaesthesia and would love to be able to do a certificate in the future. Currently I have no animals but there is certainly something in the pipeline for the very near future!

Nicola completed her BSc Hons degree in Bioveterinary Science at the University of Chester. Throughout her degree she gained an interest in veterinary diagnostics and rehabilitation, so she decided to pursue this and go into the veterinary industry. Her favourite thing about her job is seeing the animals improve and what steps have been taken for them to get to that stage. Unfortunately, she doesn’t have any pets at the moment, but she would love to adopt a few fur babies in the future!
