A LEADING animal hospital in Runcorn has welcomed two new vets to its team to further boost its experienced team.

Camilla Cooper, a neurology specialist, and Leonel Frutuoso, an internal medicine clinician, have joined Northwest Veterinary Specialists (NWVS), on Ashville Point.

NWVS is one of the UK’s leading specialist-led animal hospitals, offering care in anaesthesia and analgesia, diagnostic imaging, internal medicine and neurology.

After graduating from the University of Liverpool in 2008, Camilla has gone on to complete residencies in small animal neurology and has even been an associate professor at Colorado State University.

“I’m very much looking forward to working in such a strong neurology team, and with so many former colleagues and friends,” she said.

“Together we will provide excellent care to the neurology patients of the north west.”

Leonel previously worked at NWVS on a rotating internship before completing an internal medicine-specific internship in Hertfordshire.

“Returning to NWVA is a great opportunity as it allows me to be a part of a large multidisciplinary hospital, while working with an outstanding internal medicine team which offers the best standard of care to patients,” he said.
