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.

Liz has been working in veterinary surgeries since 1998, qualifying as an RVN a few years later. She has worked in a variety of practices in the Kent region, mainly in a Head Nurse position. 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.

Michele joined our clinic in May 2019 as a 3rd year student veterinary nurse. She has a keen interest in emergency and critical care.

At home Michele has two dogs that she enjoys taking to fly ball, as well as a horse, guinea pigs, rabbits and turtles.

Mollie is one of the 2 Mollie(y)’s here at Goudhurst and started in February 2021. She has owned, volunteered and worked with all kinds of animals from a very young age, so there was no doubt that she would go into an animal related job. Mollie qualified and became a Registered Veterinary Nurse in October 2021 and she feels it’s been her biggest achievement yet. She loves the job role as it can be vary varied.

Her days off are spent with her own animals usually going on long walks with one of the dogs, Mya the mastiff or Captain the rescue cross breed.

Molly qualified in 2021 and joined the team here at Goudhurst in 2020 as a student. She has a keen interest in surgical nursing and wound management for small animals and is currently undergoing training in these areas.

At home Molly has a 3 legged rescue cat called Wobbles who she re-habilitated after being in an accident.

Katy joined the practice in September 2020 and progressed to become a student veterinary nurse in September 2021. She is looking forward to furthering her knowledge of the veterinary world and qualifying as an RVN in the future. Katy has a keen interest in puppy development and canine health.

In her spare time, Katy likes to play hockey, rugby and walk her two Cocker Spaniels, Luna and Poppy.

Tasha joined the practice in January 2018 as a patient care assistant but has now progressed to become a student veterinary nurse. She is looking forward to furthering her knowledge of the veterinary world and qualifying as an RVN in the future.
