jl2Having grown up with horses and dogs from a young age it was inevitable that Jenny would follow a career in this area. From taking her first job as a kennel maid when only 13 years old, she has worked in various equine disciplines including hunting, Riding for the Disabled Association (RDA) and dressage. Whilst studying for her MSc she was lucky enough to work for Greyfriars Canine Hydrotherapy and Rehabilitation Centre, one of the leading centres for canine rehabilitation in the country. Whilst here Jenny gained valuable experience in the conservative management and post operative care of a number of acute and chronic conditions such as intervertebral disc herniation/disease, degenerative myopathy, cruciate ligament injury, hip and elbow dysplasia, fractures and arthritis.

Jenny is currently based in Andover, Hampshire, treating animals throughout the county as well as into Surrey, Berkshire, Wiltshire, Oxfordshire and Dorset.

Jenny recently got married, so you will see her increasing referred to as Jenny Wooster, Lewis being her maiden name.  We will get around to changing the website branding at some point but there are still a lot of people that know her as Jenny Lewis.
