VETS

Sally Booth          
BVSc MRCVS
Veterinary Surgeon

Sally, originally from a farming family in Doncaster, joined our practice when we opened the Tow Law branch. She sits on the Association of Racecourse Vets Committee and is very involved with racing, being a racecourse vet at Newcastle and Hexham racecourses, and having horses of her own in training. She is on the panel of both Riding School Inspectors and Equine Exports, and is involved with Here4Horses (a charity supporting the welfare of horses in the North East).
Outside of work Sally keeps poultry, a small flock of sheep and shows her many rescue cobs that she also drives. She loves gardening, baking and in particular making jam and chutney.
