Claire Phillips

Claire became a partner in 2014, sharing responsibility for running the equine side of the practice.

Claire originally joined us in September 2002 working as a small animal vet, before joining the equine practice in September 2004. Claire has a remit to develop our clinic and in-patient care. Her main interests include lameness work and care of the performance horse. Claire is our main equine surgeon, with a special interest in soft tissue surgery and orthopaedics. Claire spends much of her time at Somerford Park in charge of many of our lameness workups, and is rarely seen without an x-ray macine or ultrasound machine in hand.

In 2012 Claire passed her Certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice in equine orthopaedics.
