Millie Purchase

Student Veterinary Nurse

Hi, I'm Millie - a Student Veterinary Nurse with a love for just about every animal to walk (or crawl) the earth. I work and study full time, but somehow still manage to squeeze in dance classes, sing my heart out to every single song, and chat for hours on end (seriously, try stopping me). My sidekick is Ollie, a purebred Boxer I rescued at age four. I might've missed his early years, but we found each other when we needed it most. He'd probably trade me for a chicken nugget, but he's my entire heart and soul. Being able to care for animals and support their owners is something I’ve always wanted to do. I treat every animal as if they were my own - with kindness, patience, and genuine care. It’s a privilege to be part of their journey and to make a difference in the lives of both pets and people. I cannot explain how grateful and proud I feel every day to be working in my dream job that I've craved for as long as I can remember.

Client Care Assistant

I joined Medivet Tiptree vets back in 2003 purely as a Saturday receptionist after having several years away from work bringing up my 3 children. I was working a 3.75 hour shift but within a year I found myself working 5 shifts a week and thoroughly enjoying my role. Here I am 22 years later (although I have now tapered down to 3 shifts per week), still enjoying my job, no two days are ever the same. I did have a beautiful Golden retriever called Shadow but he passed over the rainbow bridge five years ago and is still greatly missed, this gorgeous breed still remains my favourite. I now have a beautiful 16 year old Cat called Lady, who I ''acquired' when moving into my current home almost nine years ago.

I have worked at Medivet Tiptree since September 2020. My current role is a part-time receptionist and I truly enjoy working here and meeting our clients and their lovely pets. Our practice is a busy and exciting place to work where not a single day is the same. I am a married mum of two gorgeous daughters and a cat mum to two naughty cats - Louis (Prince) & Bear (Grylls).

Caring for all aspects of your pet’s oral health is easy with our excellent dental facilities.

Since you took over the practise from the old owners the prices for everything has shot up disproportionally to the service we once had. The vets there are fantastic, but it’s all to do with them as people and Medivet cannot take absolutely any credit for that!
Stop being greedy with your prices. The only reason I’m still there is because of the staff eh are kind and caring.

While it is frustrating to see a different vet almost every time we need to visit due to the ridiculous turnover of staff since this became a medivet practise we have found the vets to always be professional and caring towards our dog. On this occasion this was not the case with our dog clearly hurt by a hastily carried out injection. This resulted in our dog bleeding and we were unable to even stroke him on that side for the rest of the day without him trying to bite us! Something that we have never seen before.
The high price of care in the medivet world and the constant turnover of staff may unfortunately make us look elsewhere going forward.

Excellent check-up for our cat under the Medivet scheme. Peanut was put so much at ease that the Veterinary Nurse couldn’t easily hear her heartbeat through her purring ! Compared to our previous practice (which was fine) Tiptree Medivet seems so much more relaxed and personal. Would definitely recommend.

Initially I booked a 6 month healthcare check but it was necessary to see a vet, I was able to come back later that day and get treatment started. Extremely helpful and I am once again pleased that I was not offered unnecessary tests or treatments, feel like I got a very honest service and I’m confident in the diagnosis.
The Nurse was very good at my initial appointment and extremely helpful getting me seen the same day
