Emma Bestow

Partner and Veterinary Surgeon

I qualified from Liverpool Vet School in 1996 and worked in various practices in Yorkshire and London before settling at West Kingsdown in 2013. I decided to become a vet at a very young age and pursued my dream relentlessly! I enjoy all aspects of the job but have a particular interest in soft tissue surgery. Outside of work I enjoy running and have completed several half marathons for charity. I also love cooking and travelling. In my spare time I volunteer with a wonderful charity called Streetvet which brings free veterinary care to the pets of the homeless. I’ve been married nearly 20 years and have twin teenagers and 2 tabby cats.

I graduated as a Veterinary Surgeon from Liverpool in 1994 and have worked in small animal practice in Kent since then, and I've been at working at West Kingsdown since 2012. I'm married with three lovely children, 2 labradors and various other pets too. Outside of work I sing with a choir and play the piano.

I'm the newest vet to join the team, officially starting in February 2023, but have been working for Medivet ever since graduating from Bristol University in 2021. My favourite thing about being a vet is performing surgeries. I love cats and often foster cats and kittens to socialise them before they find their forever homes. My hobbies include figure skating and other winter sports like skiing.

Deputy Head Veterinary Nurse

I am the Deputy Head Veterinary Nurse here at West Kingsdown. I have worked in the veterinary industry since I was 16, starting off as a Kennel Assistant working my way up to qualify as an RVN. I was a Patient Care Assistant then a Student Veterinary Nurse, with Medivet West Kingsdown being the branch I trained at. I am a clinical coach meaning I am also qualified to help our student veterinary nurses become RVNs, helping them through their training and supporting them in practice. I have a keen interest in nurse clinics so I love seeing all your friendly faces and of course your beautiful pets! In the future, I’d love to complete a certificate in anaesthesia to develop my understanding more as it’s an area of nursing that I’m passionate about. I am also part of a flyball team. I regularly train to compete with Lottie who is one of my two greyhound crossbreeds. Both Lottie and Louie were rescued as puppies in a very broken and poorly state. At home, I also have a Cornish Rex called Mia and Socks who is a ginger moggy.

I am a second year Veterinary Nurse student. I have known since I was young that I wanted to work with animals, and I am so glad to get the opportunity to work with the team at Medivet West Kingsdown. My favourite part of nursing is anaesthesia, I am hoping when I am qualified to look into extra certificates into surgical nursing. At home I have a staffy called Disney who I rescued back in 2015 and my very own naughty tortie Nutmeg, who I fostered last year and she never left!

I also hold a teaching qualification and assist with the training of our student Veterinary Nurses which I thoroughly enjoy. I am currently studying towards a Certificate in Feline Nursing. I have keen interests in emergency nursing, anaesthesia and radiography and hope to pursue further education in these areas in the future. I am married to my husband Adrian and have a daughter, Isla, who was born in 2021. I own 3 cats, Desmond, Pete and Cilla who are all rescue cats. Outside of work I enjoy baking, travelling and spending time with my family.

I am a first year Veterinary Nurse at West Kingsdown. I have been working for Medivet for 2 and a half years and have recently moved to West Kingsdown to begin my training. I have been an animal lover since a very young age and currently have 2 cats, 2 guinea pigs and a conure, most of which have been rescued from work! My favourite part of nursing is getting to give your pets TLC during their time with us. I have a particular interest in feline and canine behaviour and nutrition which I would like to look into more when I am qualified.

Highly efficient caring staff. We were seeking urgent medical assistance with our cat who had been involved in a traffic accident. Medivets were able to see us with a few minutes notice, were waiting for our arrival and delivered excellent care both for our pet and understanding of our distress. Can't thank the team enough.
