Our Team Langford Vets encourages a community spirit and excellent learning opportunities.

Sarah is trained as a Veterinary Physiotherapist and has specialised in small animal veterinary rehabilitation. She has been working as a human physiotherapist for over 20 years and gained her MSc Veterinary Physiotherapy in 2019 from Hartpury College, University West of England, whilst working at the Hospital for Small Animals, Edinburgh University, Scotland. Her Master’s thesis was a study demonstrating the benefits of physiotherapy on dogs with elbow dysplasia.

Sarah has also worked at Bath Veterinary Referrals, Highcroft Veterinary Referrals in Bristol, in private practice, as well as at local General Practice Vets, where she has a wide variety of experience of working in physiotherapy and hydrotherapy with post-operative small animals including knee, hip, shoulder, spinal, hock and carpus surgery, amputee, as well as chronic and complex cases including multi joint osteoarthritis and neurological weakness.

Background work experience includes working in research at a University, where Sarah is interested in canine rehabilitation research, as well orthopaedics and how canine post-operative rehabilitation can be developed.

Yu On graduated from the University of Edinburgh in 2021 and then entered a small but busy general practice in Greater Manchester. After two years and wanting to enter the world of referral practice, Yu On enrolled into two consecutive internships at a private referral hospital in Scotland before starting his residency here at Langford Vets. Yu On enjoys all aspects of veterinary anaesthesia, but is particularly interested in loco-regional anaesthesia.

Fran qualified as a registered veterinary nurse in 2011 after completing the Veterinary Nursing and Practice Administration degree at Bristol University. Langford Veterinary Practice was Fran’s training practice and she is so happy to be back and see so many familiar faces and be part of a team who share the same high standards and values as she does.

Outside of work Fran enjoys spending time with her beagle, springer spaniel, spotty horse and noisy cat.

Carol may be a familiar voice when you call the practice as she has worked with us before as receptionist from 2009 until 2014.

During her time away from Stables Equine Practice Carol has worked in farm animal veterinary practice, the National Hunt Racing industry, and a horse rescue charity, so is well-placed to help with your enquiries and diary bookings.

Owner of two ex-racehorses and four dogs, her time away from the front desk is usually spent caring for her animals and their constant demands!

Helen began her journey with Langford Vets in 2013, starting out as an Animal Care Assistant in the Small Animal Hospital. Her passion for animal care quickly grew, and she soon moved over to Langford Vet Practice to begin her nurse training. In 2018, she proudly qualified and registered as a Veterinary Nurse. She spent several years in the first opinion practice, building her skills and confidence, before moving into the Small Animal Hospital where she worked closely with surgical and neurology patients.

In 2021, Helen followed her passion for rehabilitation and completed her Level 3 Certificate in Canine Hydrotherapy. She then joined a dedicated rehab clinic, helping pets regain strength and mobility after surgery. Even while working elsewhere, she stayed connected to Langford, regularly picking up nursing shifts across both the hospital and practice.

Late 2025, Helen decided to return to Langford part-time, combining her love for hands-on nursing with her external rehab work. She has a soft spot for senior pets, enjoys being involved in surgical care, and is always excited to support patients on their road to recovery.

Cara-May graduated from the University of Surrey in 2021 and was accepted onto the PDSA graduate scheme upon qualifying.

Following her internship, she provided veterinary care for animals under the care of the Scottish SPCA before joining Langford Vets in 2025.
