“I’ve always had a keen interest in surgery so after qualifying as an RVN in 2019, I left Martin and Carr to work as a surgical nurse in a large referral clinic.  I soon realised that what I’d left behind was a progressive practice that's keen to teach and encourage.  I returned in 2020 where I went on to achieve a Certificate of Veterinary Nursing in Emergency & Critical Care (CertVNECC) and a certificate in analgesia and anaesthesia. All thanks to this Martin & Carr" – Amy, Head Nurse
