Lake practice
Simon qualified from the vet school at Cambridge University in 1987.

When he returned to private practice he became a partner in a multi-vet small animal and equine practice in rural Essex where he worked for over 20 years. But Simon is from the Isle of Wight and always hoped to return at some point. He was therefore very pleased when the opportunity arose to join Pet Doctors in 2015.
