Our Team


Meet our team

Our team are committed to providing a caring professional service to all our clients. It's just as likely that you'll meet one of our Directors in Clinic on a Monday morning as you will speak with one of our Vets or Veterinary nurses after a complex surgical procedure. We have a large team of professionally qualified Nurses, Vets and Graduate Vets here at Drove. A growing number of our Reception and Support team are also studying to obtain professional qualifications in their field of knowledge.

Here is brief introduction to our Directors and some of the Vets and Nurses that are part of our team, with an overview of their skills.
