Cuppa Tea With the Vet - Simon Ratcliffe

Join us for the last in series 4, as we speak to Viktoria Tsari   "I'm Viktoria, Greek in my soul, Londoner in my heart. I've been a vet for 10 years, qualified in small animal surgery and love my family, nature and anything new and innovative!"

Join us on our next Cuppa Tea With the Vet. We meet Serena Musto from FirstVet!   "I am originally  from Italy and graduated in Naples in 2007. Right after graduation, I moved to Spain and worked as a small animal vet for 3 years.  In 2011, I moved to the UK to continue to grow professionally. I then gained a certificate in Small animal medicine and have been practicing as a GP vet since then. I am currently studying a ISFM Advance Feline behaviour course as I believe I  can help owners to better understand their cats so they can live happier and better together. For the past two years, I have been diversifying into telemedicine which has improved my work-life balance as well as covering occasional shifts as a Locum vet to continue my job in clinical practice with less pressure. In my spare time I cook and bake for myself and friends and I am growing my own veggies!"

Join us on our next Cuppa Tea With the Vet. We meet Luis Sousa of FirstVet.   "My name is Luis, I am Portuguese by birth, but have chosen to be Welsh for the past 3 years. Started my journey as a vet in the UK in the meat industry but made the jump to small animal practice very quickly. Earlier this year I decided to be a telemedicine consultant full time"

Join us on our next Cuppa Tea With the Vet! We meet Eleanor Flynn of the Oxford Cat Clinic.   "I have worked as a vet in cat-only practice since 2013. My main interests are pain management and disease prevention. I am passionate about helping cat owners to navigate the difficulties of having a cat with a chronic illness, as I have my own cat with a chronic illness. I started an informational website for cat owners called All Cats in 2021 in response to the surge in pet ownership, an increased desire from owners for more information about their cat’s condition, coupled with massive veterinary staff shortages resulting in shorter consultation times."
