Our practice is expanding and already consists of two, independently run, small animal surgeries; one in Chesterfield, the other in Sheffield.

Our surgeries are each staffed by a team of vets and nurses (comprising of registered veterinary nurses, animal nursing assistants, student veterinary nurses and experienced auxiliary nurses) and a receptionist all dedicated to ensuring the health and wellbeing of the animals under their care.

Veterinary Practice Manager

Veterinary practice managers are responsible for providing business management services and overseeing operations in the veterinary setting. They ensure that daily operations run smoothly in the clinic, allowing veterinarians to focus solely on practicing medicine rather than the many details of running a business.

Abigail Muscroft

Head Veterinary Surgeon and Practice Manager

 

Hello I’m Abby! I joined the team in 2014 and have since become a manager of the practice.

Louise Kirk

Lucy Thomas

Veterinary Surgeon

I graduated from RVC in 2011 and since then have worked solely with small animals. I enjoy a mixture of surgery and consulting and particularly geriatric medicine. At home I have 2 old lady labradors, and I hope to be able to add a cat to the family in the not too distant future.

When not at work I like amassing plants with far to little regard for where to put them, and taking the dogs for slow walks

The role of a veterinary surgeon (often known as a vet) is to safeguard the health and welfare of animals. Mostly this work is conducted within a general practice, where they’ll be responsible for the medical and surgical treatment of a range of animals, including domestic, zoo and farm animals.

Ella Bartley

Grooming Technician

 

Hello my name is Ella, I have been an animal groomer at Croft Grooming Centre since August 2018.

My interest in professional grooming started when my own dogs returned from the groomers. I was astonished with the transformation, which started my curiosity into grooming and transforming them myself! I trained and qualified under World Champion Amy Manser, and have been grooming and growing over the last three years.

I am an advocate for gentle handling grooming, and pride myself on giving the dogs the space and time required to allow for a stress free experience. I am incredibly lucky to spend my working days with all of these wonderful animals, and strive to keep building my relationships with owner and pet.
