Meet our Partner, Emma Milliner

My name is Emma, I graduated from my first degree in Animal Biology in 1994. I studied Veterinary Medicine and Surgery at The Royal (Dick) Veterinary School, Edinburgh and qualified as a Vet in 1999. My first job was in the Forest of Dean, where I met my husband, Shane. We moved to Exmouth where I worked in a small animal hospital for 15 years gaining skills in general practice, medicine and soft tissue surgery. I have been an Official Veterinary surgeon, working on behalf of the British Government issuing passports and export certificates since 2000. I qualified as a Clinical Coach in 2002 and have been instrumental in the training of Veterinary Nurses since then. I have recently completed the training to become an RCVS Veterinary Graduate Development Programme Adviser supporting new Vets as they embark on their careers. I have a special interest in surgery but love all aspects of my work. Outside of work, I enjoy painting, reading, and spending time with my children and two crazy Border Collies Penny and Dug.

My journey into veterinary nursing began in 2021 when I started volunteering at Medivet. After five years of hard work, dedication, and plenty of learning along the way, I’m proud to now be a qualified Veterinary Nurse! I particularly enjoy the medical side of nursing and intensive patient care. Helping animals through their recovery, making them feel comfortable, safe, and cared for while they're away from home is one of the most rewarding parts of my job

There are too many new inexperienced vets that come from other surgeries. They don't know our pets personally and have less commitment to building a relationship with them. Peta like continuity and a strong charismatic figure just like humans. After 15 years I've gone to an independent surgery.😕

Crowds Flock to Medivet Weymouth Garden Party for Grand Opening

Medivet Weymouth threw open its doors on 23 June 2019 to give visitors a much anticipated behind-the-scenes glimpse of its newly refurbished practice.

Sunday’s Garden Party was formally opened by guest of honour and nonagenarian former owner David Ball. As well as drinks, games and fun activities - inside and out - visitors were lucky enough to take away a voucher for a free pet consultation at the practice.

The branch is one of the first in the country to roll out a brand new look for Medivet group, which better reflects the exceptional quality of care offered to pets and their owners.
