Veterinary nurses

Lacey joined us in March 2020. She had previously worked at a veterinary practice in Surrey for 15 years, starting as a Student Veterinary Nurse then becoming a Registered Veterinary Nurse and the last 10 years of her time there as the Head Nurse. Prior to this she had acquired a HND in Equine management and worked within the Equine industry.

This Practice Director position provided the career progression that she was looking for whilst still allowing her to continue to use her veterinary nursing skills.

She's had a variety of pets from hamsters and rats to dogs, cats and horses. She loves working with the passionate and dedicated team here at Goudhurst Vets.

She also holds the certificate in Feline Nursing from ISFM. Her main interests are in promoting cat friendly practices within the vet profession plus general rabbit welfare.

Liz loves any animal whether it meows, barks, snuffles or squawks and has a variety of rescue animals at home, plus a couple of human kids.

She is looking forward to furthering her career by beginning training to become a nurse next year.

Outside of work Kirsty enjoys reading, crochet and Morris dancing, as well as trying to keep her two Border Collies and Labrador cross entertained. The three dogs get on very well with the four tortoises she also has at home.
