Our Staff

David graduated from Cambridge University and has lived and worked locally, providing high-quality veterinary care to the pets of North Lincolnshire since 2009.  He has a particular interest in surgery and is currently studying for the British Small Animal Veterinary Association certificate in Surgery with the ultimate aim of being recognised as an advanced practitioner in Surgery.

He is experienced and competent at treating a wide range of medical conditions and routine, non-routine and emergency surgeries. His other interests include dermatology, oncology (cancer treatment)  and ultrasound examination.

David and his partner Amy live within walking distance from the practice with Frapple the whippet and cat Gherkin, both of whom were rescued from unfortunate situations. Frapple can often be seen at the surgery or sprinting around the parks of Scunthorpe.

Mehmet graduated from Ankara University Faculty of Veterinary Medicine in 2017. Since then, he has gained diverse experience working across several fields, including stray animal care, small animal practice, and wildlife medicine.

With a growing passion for veterinary surgery, Mehmet continues to develop his expertise and strives to make a meaningful difference in every animal’s life.
Outside of his professional work, he enjoys trekking, cycling, and cultivating bonsai trees, finding inspiration and balance in nature.

Tara graduated as a veterinarian from the University of Zagreb and began her career in Ireland before moving to the UK to pursue advanced training. She completed internships at Fitzpatrick Referrals, focusing on surgery, and at Eastcott Referrals, where she further developed her clinical skills and deepened her passion for providing the very best care to her patients.

Her broad experience and commitment to excellence make her a wonderful addition to our clinical team.

Outside of work, Tara loves exploring the outdoors—whether it’s hiking new trails or enjoying long walks with friends (and dogs, whenever possible!) . She’s also a big fan of good coffee, travel, and discovering new places to eat.

Iman is a South African veterinary surgeon who earned his qualification and completed a clinical internship at the Onderstepoort Veterinary Academic Hospital, University of Pretoria. During his Community Service year in Durban, he worked in animal welfare, positively impacting the lives of thousands of pets and their owners in vulnerable communities.

While comfortably treating a range of species from cats to lions, horses or hedgehogs, Iman strives to deliver gold standard practice to all patients who come under his care.

If he’s not working at Old Registry Vets, you will most likely find him training for his next ultramarathon, travelling the world or watching Survivor.

Ryan is our Practice Administrator at Old Registry Vets. He originally qualified as a Registered Veterinary Nurse in 2017 and joined our team in early 2020 as a nurse.

Now, Ryan keeps everything running smoothly behind the scenes, managing health and safety, insurance claims, and all the essential paperwork. Known for his exceptional organisational skills, he also continues to assist with clinical duties and reception when needed—a true all-rounder.

Outside of work, Ryan enjoys catching up with friends, drinking plenty of coffee, and playing video games.

Ellie has been part of the Old Registry team since 2022 and is one of our friendly, approachable receptionists. She’s passionate about creating a welcoming environment for our clients and is always happy to go the extra mile to ensure everyone feels supported and well looked after.

Outside of work, Ellie enjoys long walks in the countryside, often hiking through the Peaks with her beloved dog, Barney, and friends. She’s also a fan of a cosy local pub and a well-earned glass of pinot after a day outdoors. Family time and the occasional holiday help her recharge and keep her smiling.

Ava has been a key part of our reception team since 2022, warmly welcoming clients and their pets every day. She loves building relationships with our clients and seeing their pets grow over time.

Ava shares her home with her Rottweiler, Rocco, and rescue cat, Madonna. When not at work, she enjoys hiking, running, and spending time with family and friends—often taking Rocco along on her adventures.

Jodie has always had a deep love for animals, which led her to pursue a degree in Animal Welfare Science, recently graduating from university. Now joining our team, where her passion for animal care shines through everyday. Whilst she loves greeting and comforting all of your gorgeous pets who come through the doors, Jodie’s long term goal is to progress into veterinary nursing and take a more hands-on role in animal health.

At home, Jodie is kept busy by her own four furry companions , who are never short of attention or affection. In her free time, she enjoys scenic dog walks, getting lost in a good book, or watching football.
