    Hear from those who’ve trained & worked with us

    “I’ve not long been working for the team but feel like there’s a real sense of community here, with everyone having your back. I feel included and like my opinion matters to those around me – it’s been a very welcoming experience!”
    Elysha Richards RVN
    “I have worked at AVG for over 20 years. I have been incredibly lucky to watch the practice grow from two sites it was when i started to the 6 sites now – including 2 Hospitals offering extensive treatment options for our pets. What a journey it has been. I started out as a Student Veterinary nurse – progressing to Registered Veterinary Nurse then onto Lead Nurse looking after the Pulborough branch. When it became that I was no longer able to do the nursing due to health reasons I have been very lucky to find my self in a finance role within the business now. AVG have always looked after me and helped me find a new place where I can thrive enjoy my work and still be in practice.”
    Kate Nicholls – Finance assistant
    “At AVG, we draw on the diverse strengths and knowledge of every team member. No matter our role, we work together as one cohesive team to provide the very best care for every patient — supporting them throughout their lives, from their very first visit to their final moments. It’s a privilege to be part of a team so dedicated, compassionate, and unified.”
    Zara Baker, Lead Nurse
    “What I enjoy about AVG is the positive atmosphere with a shared intention to do good to our patients and clients, combined with an open mind of how we can change things for the better even if that means coming out our comfort zone. I enjoy the interactions with staff, clients and pets; no day is the same and it is very unlikely to ever have a boring day. We are privileged to have such an array of highly trained staff and to have the means to put our training into practice with high quality equipment.”
    Christian Donswijk, Clinical Director
    “AVG is quite unusual: it’s small enough that “independence” still means knowing the owner and working alongside him seeing clients and treating pets, but big enough to have 24/7 hospitals and advanced facilities like the CT scanner. Us vets are continually collaborating behind the scenes, sharing expertise and pushing each other to be the best clinicians we can be. We are also supported by an incredible team of conscientious colleagues. It’s not perfect – nowhere is – but it’s the best practice and strongest team I’ve worked with.”
    Katie Smith, Associate Director
    “AVG really does put patient care at the forefront of what it does and as veterinary staff that is all we can ask for from the place we work, as first and foremost, we do this job for the love of animals. It is a privilege to work somewhere that can provide so many different options and expertise to help as many pets as possible. It is such a great team across all the branches and hospitals.”
    Carrie Crunden, Branch Manager
