Dr Emily Stoker
CertAVP MRCVS | Veterinary Surgeon. Clinical Director
I graduated from the RVC in 2012 and worked at a small animal referral Hospital for four years in Wiltshire before migrating down to Devon with my partner and family of animals. I am currently on maternity leave and on my return look forward to my new role as Clinical Director.
I have a particular interest in dermatology and small animal medicine and am working towards my BSAVA medicine certificate.
In my spare time I like to do yoga and go for long dog walks with my Labrador, ernie and my rescued Egyptian street dog, Roo.
Jane Glover-Hill
MRCVS | Veterinary Surgeon.
I qualified in 1999 from Liverpool University. I initially worked in a mixed practice, with a lot of horses and even co-authored a book Vet Clinic Horses, by Hamlyn. After starting a family we headed to Devon, to be closer to Cornwall. (sorry I am Cornish at heart!) I enjoy all aspects of surgical and medical veterinary medicine. My main interests include pain management especially in geriatric patients, acupuncture, cardiology and ultrasonography, especially of the abdomen and heart. I also teach sailing and have been a RYA qualified sailing instructor for over 21 years, and teach sailing every Friday evening from April to July at Starcross Yacht Club.. We have a great junior section at Starcross Sailing Club and regularly get well over 60 children out on the water. I am also a partner in a small business Gardner and Hill (www.gardnerandhill.co.uk), selling high quality photographic homewares which I run with a colleague in my spare time. Any other free time revolves around my family, and my cat and dog, singing in a local choir, playing the flute and recorder in a small instrumental group, swimming, sailing and walking.
