Shola Idowu MRCVS Veterinary Surgeon and Joint Venture Partner Companion Care Vets Southend

I have been a veterinary surgeon for the last 9 years working all over the world and I have been privileged to live and work with some great people in Essex for the last 7 years practising veterinary medicine. My passion for excellent delivery of animal care and high quality customer centred service has been the main drive throughout my career. I am very excited to be opening Companion Care Southend, a year on since opening my other surgery in Basildon. My special interests are all aspects of internal medicine and cardiology and when I am not working, I enjoy reading, jogging, playing football with my two boys.
