Position: Senior Veterinary Nurse

Qualifications: RVN BSc (Hons), BSc (Hons) Applied Bioscience & Zoology, ISFM Cert FN

I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse, graduating in July 2018 from Edinburgh Napier University with honours.

I am local to the area and had many placements at the practice and so was delighted when offered the job here at Apex. Having been here for just over a year now I have really loved getting to know all our patients and clients alike. I now even have a few regulars that I see often which has been great for building a bond, making coming to work that bit better.

I really love all animals, but I am particularly interested in cats. I think they are the amazing characters and strike the right balance between being independent and wanting attention and affection making them my perfect animal. I’ve always had cats throughout my life and now I have 2 of my own, Oscar and Alfie. Whilst keeping up to date with all my clinical skills, I also strive to make vets visits better for cats. I’m currently studying with the International Society of Feline Medicine (ISFM) to achieve a certificate in feline nursing. This will allow me to implement what I learn to improving standards at the practice.
