What our team say
Hi, I’m Steph, I work as part of the reception team here at Avenue. I have been here for seven years and am very happy in my role, working as part of a close-knit team. No two days are the same and even when things get a little hectic, I always know that the whole team will pull together to realise the best outcome for our patients and their owners.
Hello, I am Bhadra one of the newest members of the team here at Avenue. I started here in 2024 as a new graduate and could not have asked for a better practice to begin my career in. The team has accepted me readily and supported me wholeheartedly as I navigate the challenges of my first job. The team is professional, compassionate and committed to delivering the highest standards of care possible and it has been a joy to be able to work alongside everyone here.
Hello, my name is Nat and I have worked at Avenue Veterinary Centre for 11 years. I enjoy my job role as every day is not the same. Client care is at the forefront of everything we do. The practice has invested recently in new technology to help make the process smoother for patient care such as a dental x-ray, and a urine analyser. Everyone in the team get on well, can have a giggle and support each other when times are challenging.
Biscuits and tea help too :)
