Read Dr Sarah Oxley bio

Our Clinical Director Sarah officially joined us in February 2024, although she was already a familiar face at the practice.

Sarah qualified from the University of Bristol more years ago than she cares to remember and has worked with small animals for most of her career. Sarah has a particular interest in canine and feline behaviour, as well as enjoying medicine and surgery.

Sarah lives with her husband Mark, 2 young children and ginger cat Hartley. When not at work, Sarah enjoys spending time with her family and friends, heading to the gym, exercising out in the fresh air and cooking/baking. She loves going on holiday, both at home and abroad, and is currently trying to learn some French. When she gets the chance, she loves to relax by playing the piano, although this can be challenging with 2 enthusiastic budding musicians in the house.
