Cert VNES, VNCert ECC, NCert (Anaesthesia) ,

Fear Free Certified (companion and avian)

Clinical Manager

Adina has always had a passion for working with animals and in 2010 she qualified as a registered veterinary nurse (RVN), Adina has spent much of her career working with non domestic species in a variety of settings from first opinion and referral practice, zoos, NGO's and charities as well as wildlife rescue and rehabilitation centres throughout Asia.

Adina is a Fear Free Veterinary Certificate holder, meaning she is focused on making your pets veterinary visit and treatments as low fear, stress and anxiety as possible. She is keen to work on safe training pet parrots for veterinary procedures. 

Adina has studied advanced anaesthesia concepts as well as emergency and critical care nursing across the species (she might have a slight bias towards the scaled and feathered variety).

Adina has always had a passion for exotic species and in 2016 co-founded the Association of Zoo and Exotic Veterinary Nurses (AZEVN) which facilitates specialised training to veterinary nurses and students in nursing exotic, zoo and wildlife patients.

Adina is also a clinical coach which enables us to support veterinary nursing students  for Saabatical placements for their exotic practical placements and studies.

In her spare time Adina enjoys spending time outdoors, socialising with friends and family and snowboarding!!
