At Rotherham Parkgate Vets4Pets Saar and Nicola and fully committed to their team and always on hand to provide support round the clock.  Saar is the Practice Manager and ensures everything is ticking over on a day to day basis.  He is a qualified dog behaviourist, so well up for manging those anxious 4-legged babies that need that extra care and attention.  Nicola qualified from Kosice, Slovakia with an interest in reptiles and reproduction, so you will get the chance to see those exotic reptiles and experience this alongside all our other pets that visit us on a regular basis.
