Horsham
Westpoint Horsham is a modern, dedicated livestock veterinary practice providing a comprehensive range of health-orientated services to farms in and around the Horsham area.
The practice consists of a combination of high quality experienced farm vets on the ground who have easy access to the specialist knowledge of consultants throughout the group, as well as to Biobest Laboratories for fast, accurate laboratory analysis.
At Westpoint we firmly believe that farm efficiency and profitability is driven by animal health. We aim to provide farmers with the best clinical and advisory services in order to maximise the health and productivity of their livestock.
Westpoint believe in supplying medicines at the best prices, ensuring that the price of the product does not prevent the most appropriate treatment or control programme from being adopted.
Our mobile paraprofessional team gives farmers skilled on-farm support work from foot trimming to vaccination, and we also run training courses and workshops covering key areas such as Five Point Dutch foot trimming and AI.

Tim graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in 2003 and then went on to complete a farm animal residency. On completion of his residency he undertook a PhD, examining the use of antimicrobials in the treatment of calf pneumonia. Having completed his PhD, Tim joined Westpoint with a focus on youngstock health management and currently provides advice to calf rearing units across the UK. Tim is currently Clinical Director and Chair of Westpoint’s Clinical Governance Board. In 2011 Tim was part of the group which created the National Youngstock Association to help promote best practice in calf rearing.
Chloe graduated from the Royal Veterinary College in 2017, and joined the Westpoint internship programme in August of the same year. Her interest in farm animal practice grew over the course of her training where she developed an appreciation for the complexity and diversity of the industry. She is especially interested in youngstock, infectious disease control and fertility.
In her spare time Chloe enjoys drawing and painting, hiking, and spending time with her two Siberian Huskies. Chloe also has a passion for travel; over the course of her veterinary degree she had opportunities to train in Australia, Germany, Canada, India, Sri Lanka and Kenya. During her time in Kenya she undertook a research project surveying the antimicrobial and anthelmintic use of Maasai herdsmen, and was also lucky enough to get involved in a variety of projects studying diseases in buffaloes and rhinos
Roxana graduated from the University of Veterinary Medicine in Iași, Romania in 2009. She is particularly interested in bovine reproduction and nutrition.
In her spare time Roxana likes travelling (to sunny places!) and enjoys spending time with family and friends.
Charlie graduated from the RVC in 2018 and joined the internship program. She enjoys all aspects of farm practice but is especially interested in infectious diseases and herd health planning. She has a small flock of Greyface Dartmoor sheep back on her partner’s farm in Hampshire which she’s hoping to show in the not too distant future and was excited to see a Dartmoor class at the Royal Cornwall Show.
Outside of work Charlie enjoys playing rugby, walking and hopes to take up paddle boarding.
Petra is originally from Slovenia and studied at the University of Ljubljana. She has been working as a vet in the UK since 2018, predominantly with farm animals. She enjoys working with ruminants and is particularly interested in fertility and surgery.
Matt graduated from Bristol Vet School in 2015 and joined Westpoint Farm Vets in the summer of 2017. He is still involved in the running of the family farm, Huddlestone Farmers Ltd, where they milk 420 pedigree Holsteins. His main focus areas are dairy herd management, fertility and genetics.
