More About Me
Rachel Field
Ripon, Northallerton
A bit about me...
Rachel  qualified from Bristol University in 2017, but being a Northerner at heart , and having spent several weeks here as a student during her training, she returned to Ripon to join the practice. Rachel enjoys all aspects of  small animal vet work, she has a particular passion for surgery and will be starting a certificate in this later this year.
Did you know?
Rachel has a cat called Minnie who was a rescue from the practice a few years ago, after she was found straying with a large lump on her jaw. Thankfully it turned out to be just a nasty infection. With time, treatment and lots of TLC she made a full recovery and now lives a very spoiled life!
