👋 𝑰𝒏𝒕𝒓𝒐𝒅𝒖𝒄𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝑺𝒐𝒑𝒉𝒊𝒆 👋

Some of you may have met Sophie Talbot, who is based at our hospital while Vicky Savage and Lauren Gummery are on maternity leave.

Sophie grew up in Australia and graduated from the University of Sydney in 2017, before completing a rotating internship at Alamo Pintado Equine Medical Center in California. She spent two years in ambulatory equine practice in the UK prior to undertaking an Equine Internal Medicine Residency at the Royal Veterinary College. Sophie completed her residency in 2024 and passed her ECEIM specialist board examinations in early 2025. She has particular interests in neurology and gastroenterology, and has published research on gastric impactions in horses. Sophie joined Three Counties Equine Hospital in February 2026 in a maternity cover role. When away from work, Sophie can usually be found in the pilates studio, hiking up a hillside, or indulging in a good coffee and pastry.

We’re finishing Veterinary Nursing Awareness Month with a huge appreciation post for our amazing Head Nurse Crystal 🐴💙

Crystal has been part of Three Counties Equine Hospital for more years than she’d want us to mention! She does far more than just lead the nursing team and is a key part of keeping the hospital running smoothly every single day. From organising rotas, managing the day-to-day diary, supporting communication between departments and magicking up additional help and equipment as required - Crystal is always there to keep everything on track. You’ll also find her lending a hand in reception, dispensary, and the lab — there’s very little she doesn’t do!

Crystal is also an excellent clinical nurse which is a role she thrives in and which brings her a lot of enjoyment. Talented and experienced in many areas her key areas of enjoyment are x-raying (particularly the challenge of yearling sales sets), neonatal foal care and working with the AI mares.

Three Counties would not be the same without Crystal’s hard work so we wanted to take the opportunity to say a massive thank you and celebrate Crystal, our wonderful Head Nurse. THANK YOU CRYSTAL!

Hi I’m Leah!

I most enjoy out of hours nursing because I find you can truly bond with your clients and patients, I love helping horses overcome illnesses whether that be medical or surgical colics to septic joints and wounds.

Come follow me for a weekend on call at the hospital!
