Rachael Willey

I joined the team in September 2018 as a trainee nurse after changing careers from being a teaching assistant. I'm currently studying a diploma in Veterinary Nursing at College of Animal Welfare and I am greatly enjoying learning everything I can about the profession and the animals, if I'm not working I've often got my nose stuck in a book!

I'm a huge dog lover having a husky rescue at home who keeps me on my toes with her antics and songs! She was very nervous when I adopted her almost a year ago and I love seeing more and more of her personality comes out every day as she gets more confident.

I love the varied days I get in practice with some days being in operations and caring for our inpatients and some days helping on reception and getting to interact with clients. I love getting into consultations and dealing with clients face to face and cannot wait until I can do this more often.
