Role - Veterinary Surgeon
Hi I'm Lisa, one of the Vets who resides at our Shifnal branch.
I qualified from Cambridge Uni in 2015 and my first job as a new grad was Connaught, having grown up in the Wolverhampton branch with my parents bringing all our pets to Tettenhall over the past 50 years!
A few years into my career I decided to take some time out to go travelling the world (and play with Sea turtles along the way!). Upon my return I decided to explore different vet practices for a few years, only to find the grass isn't always greener on the other side! So when Andy asked me to come back (whilst providing a puppy staffyxlab also as a bribe!) I had to say yes.
Since then I have been based at Shifnal with my now partner in crime Rodney who you will usually find snoring in his cubby hole underneath the reception desk.
I really enjoy working at a small, friendly branch and I have a great support team around me. We all enjoy working with each other, going to the pub and having a joke, which I hope shows to our clients and allows them to feel more at home here too.
Outside of work I have a menagerie to look after! I have two horses called Bertie and Desi who take up most of my time (and money!) and they are kept company at my yard by two of my rescue cats Tabitha and Tallulah.
At home I have my dog Rodney to keep me company, along with my other cats; Nelson, Archie and Izzy (the latter two are brother and sister and were found in a bin at a few days old, needless to say I hand reared them and they never left!)
Other than my animals and horse riding, I still love going to far flung places on my travels, I also enjoy pilates, walking with Rodders and going to the pub with friends and family (I dislike cooking).
