Our Team

Our loyal and experienced team is part of what makes our practice special. Get to know us a little bit before you visit the clinic…

Dr Patrick McCotter – DVM MVB MRCVS

DIRECTOR AND VETERINARY SURGEON - I've been a vet since 1974 and still feel I have not done a day's work! When I am not at the clinic I am at my farm looking after my cattle.

Dr Jonathan McCotter- DVM MRCVS

DIRECTOR AND VETERINARY SURGEON - I graduated from St Georges university, Grenada in 2007, where I met my wife Claire. I now spend much of my time helping to manage the practice but still get to enjoy meeting our lovely clients and pets as often as I can.

Dr Claire McCotter – DVM MRCVS
