Hannah Reeves

Hannah has been working as a vet nurse since 2007 and is safe to say theres not much she hasn’t seen or done in that time.

Hannah started working with us in 2021 and has played many roles within our practice, from nurse, to head nurse and at times takes part in being practice manager. 

She has a fun outlook on our days at the hospitals and enjoys silly sock Thursday, fun scrub Friday, and enticing everyone to join in “whats for lunch Wednesday” (that could be any day of the week).

Hannah and her husband have a young family, who are often seen within the practice, whether Pete and Jake are mowing or helping with repairs, or Chloe, Jimmy and Johnny helping care for the hospital cases after school. 

Hannah’s Labrador Neo is our first call for blood donations, and one of her three cats will be in for whatever ailment they incur. 

Hannah has a love of our team, her family and pets, as well as our patients and their families.
