Introducing Our Practice Team  Everyone at our practice is committed to providing you with the very best in pet healthcare. Our veterinary team bring a wealth of experience to the practice and have individually obtained high standards of professional qualification. By keeping our professional team small, you can normally see the same Vet or Nurse at each appointment if you would prefer to. Most of the team have pets of their own and can recognise the bond that owners have with thier pets. Our goal is to offer the same level of care and treatment for our clients' pets as we would wish for our own.

Mr Stuart Kay Veterinary Surgeon and Director BVMS MRCVS   I have been practising as a Veterinary Surgeon since qualifying from Glasgow University in 1981. I came to Newport in April 1982 when the practice was called Marr & Morris. At that time we were a mixed practice i.e. we treated large animals as well as small animals. Following the foot and mouth outbreak of 2001/02 we committed totally to the treatment of small animals. My own interests are Orthopaedics and General Medicine. Having a chocolate labrador of my own. I have never lost the feelings of an anxious owner and as a result here at Fields we treat all pets as if they were our own.
