Steph has been a valued member of our nursing team since 2010, having started her journey with us as a part-time nursing assistant in 2009. Before joining the practice, she worked as the head kennel maid at a local boarding kennels – a role that sparked her lifelong passion for animal care from a young age.
She trained at Writtle College while working full-time and qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse (RVN) in 2013. Her commitment and leadership saw her promoted to Senior Nurse in 2016 and then to Head of General Nursing the following year.
