Liz is our Practice Manager, and ensures the smooth running of the practice day-to-day. She also often still finds time to be involved with nursing duties, and particularly enjoys trips out with the equine vets. Outside of work, Liz has a busy schedule showing her Clydesdales across the country, and also helping her two daughters compete at various Pony Club events.

Emma is one of our dedicated nurses. She has many years of experience working with both horses and small animals, and enjoys all her nursing duties. Outside of work, Emma is kept busy eventing her horse Ruby, as well as riding and looking after her other horses George and Rowan, and super dog Jake.

Carol is one of our nursing assistants and receptionists. She has worked at Galtres for many years now, and can always be found welcoming clients in reception or over the phone. Outside of work, Carol takes part in many sporting events including triathlons, open water swims, and recently completed the Coast to Coast bike ride.

Joan is one of our nursing assistants and receptionists. Joan enjoys working with both equine and small animals. Outside of work Joan is kept busy looking after her horse Peggy, her dog Gill, and 2 cats Bob and Ted. She can also often be found helping her husband Howard with transporting hay and straw across Yorkshire.

Megan has just joined us as a student Veterinary Nurse, having undertaken a pre nursing course at Askham Bryan last year. She will be working with us part of the week, and attending college on two days to study her course. She is the proud owner of two horses (one of which she rehomed after prolonged treatment at the surgery) and two dogs.

Mog is our practice cat who was often to be seen around the car park or supervising in the stables. She arrived a few years ago heavily pregnant, and once she had her kittens, we found she had a serious heart condition, Tetralogy of Fallot. We therefore decided we would keep her here as she could be closely monitored. Sadly we lost her in February 2022 but keep her ashes in the office to keep a close eye on us!
