Kitty Chan MRCVS

Veterinary Surgeon

Kitty graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in London in 2021. She joined the practice in 2024 and quickly gained a loyal client base reflecting her warm and friendly nature. Kitty has a passion for endocrinology. You can see her well-trained cat, Pippa, in the picture, who knows how to ‘sit’, ‘shake a paw’ and ‘lie down’!

Emma Penry RVN

Registered Veterinary Nurse

Emma joined our team in 2024, bringing with her over 30 years of nursing experience. She has a real enthusiasm for dentistry and inpatient care, where her calm and reassuring manner helps our patients get back to their best as quickly as possible. Emma shares her home with Mr Filbert the cat (AKA Cheesepuff!)

Kate Arrowsmith

Receptionist

Kate joined our receptionist team in 2024. She’s worked in vet practices in Shropshire for over 20 years, so you can be reassured she knows exactly how to help you when you phone or pop into the practice.

Rob Wilson MRCVS

Veterinary Surgeon

Rob qualified from Liverpool Veterinary School in 1988 and has worked in both mixed and companion animal practices. He joined Wrekin View in 2000 becoming a partner in 2001. He has a particular interest in surgery. In 2012, he became the owner of the practice when Mr. Griffin retired. He currently owns a rather mad Cocker-Poo called Maggie.

Stephanie James-Smith RVN

Deborah Bolger

Receptionist

Deb joined the practice in 2025. She’s brought heaps of experience with her from her time in animal welfare charity work. She still does a lot of volunteering for wildlife rehabilitation groups; you might find her out in the countryside releasing a recuperated owl!

Anya Klostermann MRCVS

Anya is a longstanding and integral member of our Veterinary Surgeon team, having worked at Wrekin View since 2006. Anya enjoys providing all aspects of veterinary care and does so masterfully. She has two dogs that keep her well exercised!

Jane Bracken

Head Receptionist

Jane is our Head Receptionist, who has been with us for 30 years. As if her 4 cats and tortoise weren’t enough to look after, she’s also a longstanding fosterer for RSPCA Shropshire Branch. You’ll find a lot of cats nearby who were named by Jane whilst she hand-reared them as kittens!
