I joined Medivet in 2021 and work primarily at the Ripon branch, but do occasionally come to the Thirsk hospital. I am mainly interested in preventative medicine and primary care, and enjoy supporting owners with managing their pet’s ongoing needs.

I joined the practice at the end of 2022 as Patient Care Assistant. I have always been passionate about caring for animals and i'm excited to see where my new career in veterinary care will take me! At home I have a dog called Lola who is an unusual cross, she is a spaniel cross american bulldog, I also have some fancy pigeons. When i'm not at work, you can usually find me and Lola on a hike somewhere! I enjoy all aspects of working in a veterinary centre but especially love interacting with and caring for all the animals that come to visit us.

Patient Care Assistant

I have been a member of the Skeldale team since 2020, after developing a passion for animal welfare and completing a diploma in animal management at Askham Bryan. I started as a work experience student at Skeldale with a goal of pursuing a career of becoming a registered veterinary nurse. At work, I particularly enjoy ensuring patients are looked after to the highest standard, and recovering patients smoothly from anaesthesia. Outside of work, I enjoy walking my dog Charlie in the Yorkshire countryside, and I am an active member of Young farmers, engaging with the local agricultural community.

I changed vets because I didn’t feel the previous practice cared or went the extra mile for my dog, who is so important to me. Please continue with the confidence classes and the effort you go to for my dog to feel comfortable and welcome. Treats are brilliant and attitudes are great, thank you. If only the Ripon branch was open more hours.
