Hi, I'm Sam.

I am the Senior Veterinary Surgeon and one of the Practice Owner's here at Companion Care Cannock.

I graduated as a Veterinary Surgeon in Lahore, Pakistan in 2000 and then completed my Masters in Pathology in 2003. I travelled to the UK the same year and did lots of voluntary work in order to gain experience within the Veterinary industry. I then passed my MRCVS in 2006. I have worked in a variety of practices including emergency clinics  so I am proud to say that there are not many things in the Veterinary field that I have not seen.

I have a real passion for working in theatre and carrying out a wide variety of surgeries including; orthopaedic procedures such as patella luxation repair, soft tissue surgeries such as BOAS (brachycephalic obstructive airway syndrome) surgery and many other advanced procedures.

At home, my wife Faiza and I are kept busy by our three children. In our spare time, we enjoy travelling and spending time with family and friends.

My Team at Companion Care Cannock, is experienced, passionate, and determined to be the best!

Hi, I'm Sophie.

I'm the Head Nurse and one of the Practice Owner's here at Companion Care Cannock.

I first began my Veterinary Nursing career in 2015, previously working at Vets4Pets Walsall Reedswood until I transferred over to Cannock in 2020. I qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2021 and became a Practice Partner in October 2022.

I have a huge passion for the care of animals and have a particular interest in in-patient care, both critical care and post-operative care, as well as an interest in laboratory work. I am currently a Clinical Coach to two Student Veterinary Nurses, helping them on a daily basis with their journey in becoming Registered Veterinary Nurses.

In the future, I plan to further my study as a Veterinary Nurse and have an interest in gaining an additional qualification in Veterinary ECC (Emergency and Critical Care).

Hi, I'm Becky.

I'm one of the Student Veterinary Nurses here at Companion Care Cannock. I joined the team in 2018 after completing my Level 2 Veterinary Care Assistant qualification here at the practice. I split my time between reception and out the back, helping the Vets and Veterinary Nurses with their daily duties enabling me to work closely with clients as well as their pets! I am in my second-year of my Level 3 Veterinary Nursing qualification - this has been a dream of mine from a young age!

At home, I have a hamster named Jerry. I also have a budgie named Bennie who is very chatty and full of character! I love all animals especially caring for them and helping to nurse them back to health.

Hi, I'm Destine.

I joined Companion Care Cannock in March 2016 as a Client Care Advisor.  I have worked in both small animal and large animal practices and trained as a Veterinary Nurse at Rodbaston College in 1979/1980. I had time off during my career to start and bring up a family, having other jobs to fit in with my family in between but now that they are adults, I have returned to the job I love most.

At home, I have 3 rescue cats - they all have their own personalities and bring a lot of enjoyment and love (though can be little devils!).

When not working, I enjoy spending time with my children and grandchildren, cooking, seeing friends and reading.
