I qualified in June 1999 from the University of Liverpool.  Following this I worked for the RSPCA in Manchester for five years before returning to Liverpool where I completed a certificate in small animal anaesthesia.  I then spent a further period of time with the RSPCA before setting up this small animal practice in 2004.  My interests include surgery, critical care and ophthalmology.

Will graduated from Glasgow University in 2004 and started work in a mixed practice in Hereford.  He moved to Swansea in November 2007 to enable him to concentrate on his main area of interest in small animal veterinary work.
Will enjoys life in Swansea and Gower, kitesurfing on the many beaches, eating the local seafood and walking his three very spoilt dogs.

Dave joined the practice in 2010, having worked in Cardiff, Yorkshire and New Zealand. His main interests are in Cardiology and Internal Medicine and he is working towards the Certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice (Cardiology).
