    Dr Richard Nolan

    Veterinary Surgeon

    BVSc MRCVS

    After graduating from Bristol in 1985, Richard worked for a year in Somerset where, in addition to normal cattle work, he had the opportunity to treat some of the animals at Longleat Safari Park. After a year in Lancashire, Richard settled into Tarvin where he has been ever since. During that time he has treated all species but in recent years become increasingly focussed on family pets. During the upcoming building work at Manor Court he will be happy to meet Tarvin clients and their pets at our fellow Willows Veterinary Group surgery at The Firs in Kelsall where he will be working for the 2 days a week that Manor Court will be closed.
