            Dr Stephanie Wenban - 

            I always knew I wanted to be a vet and after completing a DipHE in Bioveterinary Science at the University of the West of England I went on to graduate from Bristol University Vet School in 2016 with Distinction.


            Leaving the Somerset Hills behind, I moved to West London to work in busy vet clinics and hospitals across the City. After 3 years of working as a GP Vet treating hundreds of cats, dogs, rats, rabbits and hamsters I decided to move on to the next challenge.
            Joining a pet food start-up in 2019 as their in-house vet, I appeared in several newspapers, radio shows and magazines talking about dog health. During this time I also completed invaluable further study into Small Animal Clinical Nutrition, learning how food can complement health and stabilise disease.

            I left the start-up in January 2020 to set up Pet Wellness Expert and focus on my passion for proactive health. Alongside Pet Wellness Expert I consult as a veterinary advisor and sit on the Science Advisory Board of a US pet healthcare company, as well as being a doting dog-mum to my wonderful Maltipoo Eddie.

            I am a Member of the Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons, and am delighted to have been a ‘Vet of the Year 2020’ nominee.

          • Bite Size: Itchy Scratchy Hot Spots

            In this Bite Size episode Dr Steph does a deep dive on Hot Spots.

            Hot Spots are sometimes called acute moist dermatitis, or they are sometimes called pyotraumatic dermatitis  and it's basically where your dog just gets so frantic they cause self trauma in the affected area. So they're just literally tearing themselves apart. Something that is so itchy, they just can't deal with it. 

            Dr Steph helps us diagnose hot spots and also treat them.
