Sarah Jane Bayley (Practice Manager)

"I came to Darley House 20 years ago as a part time payroll/accounts administrator, or Bookkeeper as it was known back then. Over the years I've progressed to office & reception Manager and now I'm the Practice Manager.

The original appeal to work at Darley House was the friendly family atmosphere and the flexibility and understanding of working parents. I stayed because of the people I get to work with every day. They are caring, kind, compassionate and empathetic and that doesn't just refer to my colleagues but also our clients.

Many of the staff have been here nearly as long as me and some even longer and we have a client base that follows suit. We have a lovely family vibe and our clients feel the same way."

Hollie Charlesworth (Reception Administrator/VCA)

"I have worked at Darley House Vets for four years now. Every day here is different but what doesn't change is the Family feeling of the Practice and the joy I get from seeing our lovely Patients and Clients when they visit us."
