Support team

Lorraine has been with Orchard since 2004 and enjoys her role of practice administrator. She enjoys meeting different people and interacting with their pets. Lorraine is married and has two Dobermans, Nelly and Zeus, who enjoy taking her for long walks! In her spare time Lorraine likes to run, keep fit and socialise with her family and friends.

Abby is a member of the reception team at Orchard veterinary Centre. She is a dog lover and has three dogs Belle, Milo and Teddy. In her spare time Abby likes to get away in her campervan to the countryside with her dogs for long walks.

Rachael joined our team as one of our receptionists at the Sherwood practice. She has been a client of ours for many years now with her dog, Scamp, who is known as the miracle pup! The brilliant bunch of vets and nurses saved his life when he was just weeks old and now Rachael says she feels privileged to be part of the wonderful Orchard family. Rachael enjoys spending her spare time walking Scamp, along with her new addition to the family Toby the Labrador and socialising with her partner, family and friends.

Phil enjoys working and being part of the caring team here at Orchard Vets. He enjoys meeting and getting to know all of our clients and their pets (especially puppies) but, much more than anything, seeing the poorly ones get better.

Emma has been working as a dog groomer since 2014. She became interested in dog grooming as she is a dog lover and was looking for a profession that she could channel her love of dogs into. Emma really enjoys the fact that no two days are the same at work and she gets to meet some great canine characters, as well as their owners.
