Get To Know Our Veterinary Team
VETERINARY SURGEON
James Rutter
I have over 20 years of veterinary experience with cats, dogs, ‘small furries’ and exotics. I hold a Postgraduate Certificate in Small Animal Surgery (Distinction) and regularly undertake advanced surgeries, including TTAs and BOAS surgeries. In my spare time, I like to spend in the mountains or in/on the sea – hiking, kayaking or swimming.
Alperen Gumuskuyruk
Alperen Gumuskuyruk completed his veterinary degree in Turkey. Together with his wife, who is also a veterinary surgeon, he ran his own small animal veterinary practice before relocating to the UK in 2023. He is enjoying the cooler weather in the UK, and is looking forward to exploring Anglesey, and all that it can offer.
Mert Yoruklerli
Nabeela Tar
Veterinary Surgeon
I qualified as a veterinary surgeon in 2022 in South Africa. Initially, I worked as a veterinarian epidemiologist for the Department of Land Reform and Rural Development in Pretoria before joining a busy veterinary practice, also in Pretoria. Wanting to see the world, I moved to the UK in 2025 and am enjoying the more moderate climate here. I have two beautiful cats who have settled into their new home, and I am enjoying exploring Anglesey and its surroundings.
VETERINARY STAFF
Ashleigh Roberts
I am the Practice Manager at the practice. However, I joined the practice many years ago as a veterinary nurse and developed a keen interest in radiography, which I continue to keep up. I enjoy spending time with my cats and tending to my tarantulas during my downtime.
Lauren Hawkins
I simply adore working with animals and became a qualified veterinary nurse in 2024. While I enjoy all aspects of my job, I particularly enjoy assisting in surgery. Outside the practice you can find me playing rugby, or walking my two dogs on one of the many beautiful beaches on Anglesey.
Lauryn Williams
I gained a degree in Zoology from Liverpool John Moores University in 2021. I worked as a patient care assistant at a veterinary practice in Liverpool before returning home to Anglesey. I have a fondness for staffies, with my own at home who keeps me busy in my spare time. I have my sights set on becoming a qualified veterinary nurse and will be embarking on a degree in 2024.
Dawid Suszycki
Nursing Assistant
I grew up on a farm and have been around animals all my life. For several years I worked as a Chef in the hospitality industry, but always wanted to return to working with animals. In 2024 I embarked on a assistant veterinary nurse training course which I absolutely loved. Now, I am hoping to begin my studies to become a fully qualified veterinary nurse and can’t believe how lucky I am to have made the switch into the veterinary profession.
