Welcome back to Orchard News the new quarterly edition newsletter for all our patients and their owners!

In this edition we meet Lucky Jones, our Star Patient for March and hear about his incredible escape from cancer and how he lived up to his name.

We give you all the latest staff and practice news - including new additions to the team, one a new born baby!

We also tell you about our recent school visit and all that went on there - it was a great success! We will keep you up to date on all the latest offers that are available now and in the coming months, make sure that you don't miss out!

The nurses regualr feature column returns this time with information about worming, containing lots of information and some helpful tips.

Enjoy the read. See you next time!

 

Our Staff News

Jane, our Hucknall receptionist has just given birth to a baby girl named Holly Abigail and weighing in at 10lb 4oz! Both mum and Holly are doing really well and her older brother Alex is very taken with his new sister.

Marie Derry VN will soon be joining Jane on maternity leave as she is expecting her first child in July. She is yet to wear her rather unflattering maternity nursing trousers but look out for them when she does!

Phil Hammond has moved to a new role in reception. Tracey Henderson will be joining us in March as Head Veterinary Nurse. She has worked in several local practices as well as in Bermuda where she also worked as a scuba diving instructor - which she will still be doing in her spare time here, if you're interested in learning how!

You may also have noticed that there has been lots of building work going on in the practice. The roof is finally being repaired with demolition of the defunct chimney. We all look forward to the new look.

CVS head offices have moved next door to the old ChangeKey offices, giving us more space again upstairs!
