Maria

Maria graduated with a distinction from the Veterinary School of Aristotle University of Thessaloniki in 2019.

In the same year, she completed a postgraduate training in Anaesthesia and Critical Care in the same department and she is currently studying towards a Certificate in Small Animal Medicine.

She is an experienced General Practitioner, with a passion for emergencies and soft tissue surgeries. Throughout the year she attends multiple courses, to keep her knowledge up to date.

Maria ran her family veterinary clinic in Greece for more than 2 years and as a Member of Greek Action of Volunteer vets, she has participated in missions, in which she neutered and treated stray cats and dogs throughout Greece.

She has been a member of our team since September 2022, and she consults every Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday.

Ioana Cert AVP MRCVS

Ioana joined our friendly and experienced team at the Corner Veterinary Clinic in 2015.

Prior to this Ioana has worked in practice across London since 2007 treating pets with her advanced knowledge of medicine cases and soft tissue surgery. Ioana’s passion is internal medicine and surgery, leading to her currently studying to become a Certificate Holder in Small Animal Medicine. With her vast general practitioner knowledge over many years, this is quite an accolade!

Being an OV Practitioner means Ioana is available to give advice and issue passports/export certificates to small animal companions wanting to travel.

In her spare time she loves trekking, reading, meeting her friends and baking cakes (to wind down after a busy day in theatre!). She has been living in Sutton for more than a decade with her family and rescue cat Yoko.
