Helen Barker

Client Care Assistant

Since joining Medivet Shepshed in July 2022, I’ve loved being part of a team that puts pets and their owners at the heart of everything we do. As a Client Care Assistant, I enjoy welcoming clients into the practice and especially cherish the cuddles and interactions with the wonderful animals that come through our doors. Outside of work, I’m a big fan of films, love spending time socialising with friends, and enjoy travelling whenever I get the chance.

It’s never difficult to get an appointment and the staff are always helpful and cheery. I’ve always been impressed with the knowledge of the vets I’ve interacted with and because of that I implicitly trust them with my dogs.
Also useful is the “ breakdown “ of a bill listing proposed procedures and the relevant costings which help in decision making.

Very professional but friendly atmosphere, staff are very informative and I feel that my cats are always in the best hands. I wouldn't take my animals anywhere else & would 100% recommend this surgery.
