Charlotte Hussey BSc(Hons) BVM&S MRCVS

Charlotte qualified as a vet from the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Science, Edinburgh, in 2011. Prior to this, she completed an honours degree in Physiology with Biochemistry at Southampton University. The veterinary profession is her second career, and she feels confident that this industry is where she will remain – particularly since founding Skylark Vets!

Charlotte grew up in the countryside, surrounded by woodlands, fields and haystacks. She has always harboured a passion for both animals – whatever their shape or size – and the great British outdoors. She particularly loves hill walking, but is amenable to many outdoor pursuits! Over the years, her many companions have varied from dogs to birds, to guinea-pigs and rabbits, to bearded dragons to tortoises. This experience has been tremendously helpful in helping her to empathize with pets and owners alike.

British wildlife is close to Charlotte’s heart, and she is keen to help to preserve the natural world wherever possible. She is a firm believer that wild animals should remain wild! Although very fond of companion mammals, Charlotte holds a special veterinary interest in birds and reptiles.
