Heather Stephenson Bio

Growing up in Manchester I spent all my free time at my local riding school, and I was extremely fortunate to have my own horse and supportive patients who gave up their weekends to take me showjumping.

This hobby soon developed into my passion, and after completing a BSc Equine Science (Hons) with Hartpury College, I started my career as an Equine Technician at the Animal Health Trust, Newmarket.

After 5 years down South, I recently moved back home and began my new role at Oakhill Veterinary Centre. Day to day I look after our lovely patients and assist our vets throughout a variety of procedures and surgeries. I especially enjoy all things imaging, with my principle role being in the acquisiton of MRI scans.

I am working towards qualifying as an Equine Veterinary Nurse so spend a lot of my free time studying but when I can, I enjoy keeping fit and spending time with family.
