Patient Care Assistant

From a young age I have always had a keen interest and absolute passion for animal welfare. I have enjoyed working at various animal sanctuaries, caring for a large range of animals from ferrets, and chickens to sheep and ponies. At college I studied animal care and I hope to go to college to become a RVN with Medivet in the future. Outside of work I love being with my family, going on days out and spending time with our rescued cats, guinea pigs and April the rabbit

For as long as I can remember, I have always had a strong passion towards working with animals. Growing up I was never without a pet, varying from hamsters, dogs, cats, budgies and horses. I started with Medivet in early 2023, with my long-term goal wanting to become a RVN. Outside of work, I love spending time with my dogs and horses, as well as my friends and family.

My pet is currently undergoing treatment for a long term condition. The care she has received, especially by her vet Gerhard, has been amazing . The reception staff always greet you with a smile.
If there is one thing that could be improved on is the speed at which my insurance claim is processed , which in a few instances has been well over a week. This has on occasion caused a "glitch" in my finances.
Other than this one issue, the practice is amazing and even if I moved out of the area I would continue to use

The staff were on hand to help me carry my heavy 2 cats into the practice (& help get them back into the car after).
As always, my vet took time & care with my previous babies and gave pragmatic advice
