Vets
Vicky Weedon, one of our two regular vets at the Todmorden Surgery, started with us in February 2006.
Vicky originally comes from Cheshire and qualified from Cambridge University in 2004. Since then she worked in a mixed (farm and companion animal) practice in Preston for a year before taking a six-month sabbatical travelling around South East Asia.
She is very enthusiastic about working in small animal practice and especially enjoys surgery and feline medicine.
Vicky lives with her husband, and they have a young and daft Lurcher called Eric who was adopted as a rescue dog in April 2006.
She enjoys outdoor pursuits such as hiking, trips away in her campervan, live music, walking her dog and her tiny vegetable patch.
Helen joined us in July 2007 working at our Todmorden branch. She graduated from Bristol Vet School but originally comes from Harrogate and came back North to her Yorkshire roots.
Helen has a cat Tippy, currently living with her parents and a dog, a Border Terrier called Penny- a bundle of energy and enthusiasm.
Other than trying to tire Penny out on long walks her interests include climbing, skiing, scuba diving, cooking and indie/rock music.
I qualified from Liverpool university in 2005 and moved to Calderdale in 2009 to join West Mount Vets where I work mainly at the Mytholmroyd and Todmorden branches.
I have a keen interest in internal medicine cases and also like dealing with exotics and wildlife too. We've had bats, bagders, woodpeckers and waxwings at Tod surgery in the last year.
I enjoy fell-running, rock climbing, cycling, swimming in cold places and eating cake. I am a member of Todmorden Harriers and love running around the local hills.
I also have a little cat (on loan) called Indie who is the best cat in the world.
