Anne Killick  B.Vet.Med.M.R.C.V.S.  :

I qualified from the Royal Veterinary College , London in April 1982 . I initially worked in a mixed but predominantly small animal equine practice in Stoke on Trent. In October 1985 I moved to join Margaret Wharmby's practice at Park Hall Stables , Mansfield Woodhoue . Here I worked with both small animals & horses .I remained here until I decided to set up my own practice at Meadowbank which I opened in January 1994 . My clinical interests are in small animal medicine including rabbits . I come from a dairy farming background & have always had a keen interest in horses . It is only since starting my own practice that I have not had enough time to have a horse of my own. Nowadays I have taken to riding a mountain bike (this takes less looking after than a horse) & tend to combine this sport with travelling to exciting new destinations every year.

(Regular Replacement Locum)

I graduated from The Royal Dick Veterinary School in Edinburgh in 1981. Initially I worked in mixed practice in Lincolnshire for 5 years before moving to Nottinghamshire. Since this time I have mainly worked in small animal and equine practices including an orthopaedic referral practice (Ark Veterinary Clinic) and a dermatology referral practice (Companion Veterinary Clinic at Newark). This year I am the British Veterinary Association local chairperson for the East Midlands region.


I am married with 2 children and mostly work part time. I have always had a keen interest in horses and have competed at the Horse of the Year Show in the Pony Club mounted games, evented to an Advanced level and am currently a list 5 Dressage Judge.

Anne Race VN :

I qualified as a Veterinary Nurse in 1984, and more recently in 1999 achieved a Diploma in Companion Animal Behaviour Therapy. I now see cats with behavioural problems, on a referral basis. I became an assessor for Veterinary Nurse training in 2000 which enables me to support our nurses through their training. I am also an examiner for the Pre Veterinary Nursing course which is an alternative entrance to Veterinary Nursing if you do not have the relevant GCSE's. I am married with 3 children and have several cats and a dog.

 

Amanda Kirk-Ellis - Accounts Manager & Assistant Veterinary Nurse

I have recently joined the team, at Meadowbank Vets and have dual roles,  one being Accounts Manager where my main responsibilities are the day to day accounts and book keeping of the practice.  I have over nine years experience within this field, having worked for a variety other companies including a marketing company and a plastics manufacturer.

Animals have always been a love of mine and to be working within a Veterinary practice as an Assistant Veterinary Nurse is a dream come true.  I am also a freelance horse riding instructor, having attained my BHS stages 1 and 2 and PTT and an NVQ Level Two in Horse Care and Knowledge. 

I have a young son and one horse, one dog, one cat and two goldfish which as you can guess all keep me quite busy.

 

 

 

 

Judy Fearnley

I joined Meadowbank in June 2006 after moving to Derbyshire from Huddersfield to live with my partner. I have spent most of my working life in the motorbike trade - having worked in parts and clothing sales as well as instructing. Moving to Derbyshire has given me a new beginning and the chance to do what I have always wanted - which is to train to become a Veterinary Nurse. The plan is I shall enroll with the RCVS  Spring 2007 and start going to college on day release in the Autumn.

I have two house rabbits whom I adore. They have the run of the house and are very spoiled. I also encourage hedgehogs into the garden & feed them every night. My other main interests are all things to do with motorbikes and "diving" - I am a qualified, advanced open water diver
