Dr Anna Isaenkova

Born and raised in Russia, I grew up surrounded by cats and developed a deep connection with them from a young age. My love for animals has always been a part of me, and becoming a veterinarian felt like a natural step in following my childhood dream.

I moved to Spain to pursue my veterinary studies, spending six wonderful years in sunny Valencia. During my time as a student, I discovered the existence of feline-only practices and spent several summers doing placements in these specialised clinics. I was impressed by the higher quality of care for cats in these environments and how comfortable both the patients and their owners seemed.

After graduating from Cardinal Herrera University in 2021, I was eager for a new challenge and decided to move to the UK. I spent several years working in Norfolk at a very busy first-opinion practice. While I enjoyed working with various species, I always found myself most excited when seeing cats. When I felt it was time for the next step in my career, I discovered that the London Cat Clinic was hiring. I knew instantly that it was my dream job—I had known about the practice since my student days and had always hoped to work here one day! The quality of care and the dedication of each team member are truly incredible, and I feel so fortunate to be part of the amazing TLCC family.

The best part of my job is witnessing the unique bond my clients have with their cats and using my skills to help my patients live long, happy, and healthy lives. I am particularly interested in imaging and surgery and am working towards a GP certificate in feline medicine.

Outside of work, I try to stay active. In my free time, you can find me running along South Bank, in a hot yoga class, or at the gym. I also love to travel and do so every time I get a chance.

Dr Anna Minoli

Born and raised in Northern Italy, I surrounded myself with animals from an early age and soon moved on from bandaging teddy bears to graduating in veterinary medicine at the University of Turin. Moving to the UK in 2007 I have spent the last ten years as a GP vet in South London.

I absolutely love general practice, the continuity it provides and the privilege of almost becoming a part of the pets’ family. And while I like to think that most of my canine patients like me, it’s the cats and their people that I always clicked with the most.
Unfortunately for our feline friends it’s often difficult to really meet their needs in an environment shared with other animals, so when I first heard about TLCC I thought that would be the perfect job for me! Cats deserve the best possible care and there is no better place for that than TLCC, where everybody is hugely passionate and the facilities are outstanding.

Outside work, my partner and I are bossed around by two cats (Blindy and Big G) and Snow the husky (all rescues, all white and fluffy) in a South London flat that always needs hoovering. I have a passion for yoga, volunteering, and when I have time, vegan baking… eating it more than making it.

Dr Francesca Sanders Hewett

Since graduating in 2014, I have mostly worked in small animal practices in London. Over this time my relationship with feline patients has blossomed, in no small part due to the arrival of Nigel, a sweet (though occasionally spicy), and initially very nervous, cat who was abandoned at work. Forging a relationship with Nigel, and learning his body language, has helped me to develop my interaction with cats in clinic.

Cats are such special creatures, and although it is possible to achieve a lot in a normal veterinary practice, noise, and the presence of other species, always have a negative impact.

Joining TLCC in 2022 has been a dream. The careful design of the clinic, as
well as the passion for feline medicine and welfare held by all the staff is astounding. I am honoured to be a part of the team.

As a vet I particularly enjoy the challenge of interpreting all that an animal is
communicating, both through physical signs on clinical exam, behavioural
changes at home, and the results of diagnostic tests including imaging, and have a certificate in Small
Animal Medicine to enhance my diagnostic toolbox.

Outside of work, other than spending time with Nigel, I enjoy singing in an a
cappella choir, mending things, and climbing.

I grew up in Italy surrounded by animals and nature.

After graduating at University of Padua in 2012 I moved to Portugal where I started my career as a vet.
I grew up in Italy surrounded by animals and nature.

After graduating at University of Padua in 2012 I moved to Portugal where I started my career as a vet.

Working in mixed small animal practices quickly made me realize how much I love working with cats, so when I moved to London in 2019 I dreamed of joining the team at The London Cat Clinic.

Understanding how cats respond differently according to the approach the vet has during the examination and the environment around them made me undertake several courses of feline behavior and welfare to be able to know them better and provide the most sensitive and respectful service they deserve.

My passion for learning brought me in 2018 to get my Certificate in Small animal medicine – GPCert SAM.

The special environment I’m working at the moment gave me the willing of starting a new challenge to also get the Certificate in Feline Medicine.

My areas of main interest are internal medicine and diagnostic imaging, I love ultrasound and I’m very interested in developing stronger skills in echocardiogram as well.antastic team!

Dr Sherry Carlisle

I am a graduate of the University of Edinburgh, 1998. I have always had an exceptional passion for cats and am interested in all aspects of Feline Medicine and Surgery.

I am also a keen traveller and have worked in small animal practice both in the UK and New Zealand. I have spent time in the USA working with a feline shelter/fostering organisation, being involved with the retrovirus screening programme and infectious disease education events.

I completed the University of Sydney CVE Feline Medicine course in 2019, gained my MANZCVS (Medicine of Cats) in 2021 and shortly afterward joined the fantastic team at The London Cat Clinic. I enjoy all aspects of Feline Medicine but have a special interest in clinical pathology, cytology and haematology. I am also interested in infectious diseases and immunology.

Outside of work I enjoy travel and exploring other cultures. I teach watersports for Access Adventures and enjoy playing bass guitar. I have two adorable longhaired cats, Ginger and Marie.

Dr Ursula Dietrich

I have been practicing Veterinary Ophthalmology for over 2 decades. Being a
graduate from the Veterinary School at the Ludwig-Maximilians-University in Munich, Germany, I received further specialty training in Veterinary Ophthalmology during externships at the Animal Eye Clinic in La Habra, California and the Animal Health Trust in the U.K. I completed my residency
program in Veterinary Ophthalmology at the University of Zurich, Switzerland and am one of few individuals board certified in both the American and European College of Veterinary Ophthalmologists. For the past 20 years I have been working in academic institutions and specialty referral centers in Switzerland, the U.S. and the U.K. and until most recently Senior Lecturer at the Royal Veterinary College.

Cats have always been a personal and professional favorite of mine,  based on
the uniqueness of the feline eyes and ocular conditions, their fascinating behavior and the special bond they develop with their owners.

Offering a cat-only ophthalmology service in the London Cat Clinic is a very unique opportunity. It will pair in-depth client education and high-quality veterinary
specialty care in a cat-friendly environment making this a very special veterinary experience for the cat owner.

I lives in Reigate, Surrey with my partner Jonathan and my cat “Tommy”. I enjoy our allotment and flower gardening, gardening design, cooking and bread baking.

Dr Jeremy Campbell

I am passionate about cats and have dedicated the latter part of my career to learning about and providing the best quality medical care to the feline species. My studies and experience over the years have taught me that cats respond better when cared for in an environment designed and built around their specific needs. The London Cat Clinic is the realisation, after years of planning and hard work, of my ultimate dream to open a cat-only veterinary clinic in London.

Qualifying in New Zealand over 20 years ago, I moved to the UK in 2000 working in a number of general practices before running a small animal practice in London. In 2009, I relocated to Hong Kong where I began to pursue my interest in feline medicine in earnest. Whilst working for the Hong Kong SPCA, I continued my studies and built up extensive skills in ultrasonography, cardiology and internal medicine before moving back to the UK in 2011.

In 2012, by examination I attained membership of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in Feline Medicine. In 2015, I became a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Advanced Practitioner in Feline Medicine and I am a founder member of the International Society of Feline Medicine – Academy of Feline Practitioners. Eager to share my love of medicine I volunteered for 5 years as an Associate Editor on the Feline Internal Medicine folder of the Veterinary Information Network, a global on-line information resource for all veterinary staff.

My areas of special interest and experience cover all aspects of internal medicine, particularly cardiology and diagnostic imaging including cardiac and abdominal ultrasonography. I love geriatric medicine and live to see old cats get a new ‘lease of life’.

At home, I am a willing servant to Humphrey, the Streatham street cat who with a penchant for regular battles and treatment has reinforced my great empathy for all cat owners and the problems they face medicating of cats over the long term and Artie who had the good sense to be born up the road from the clinic in Arts Lane!

I am proud to welcome you and your cats to The London Cat Clinic. You can rest assured that you are in safe, caring hands.
