About Dr Rachel Caines BVSc CertAVP(VD) MRCVS


Tell us a bit about yourself

Hi, I’m Rachel. I’ve been with the team at Knutsford Veterinary Surgery since 2015 as a Veterinary Surgeon. I graduated from the University of Bristol in 2011. From a young age, I was fascinated by animals and looking after them. This developed into a passion to provide them with the best care possible. As they can’t speak and easily tell us how they feel, I have made it my priority to understand them the best I can and to be their advocates.

What are your Qualifications and Interests?

After qualifying as a Veterinary Surgeon, I developed a special interest in Dermatology. I have gained a Certificate in Advanced Veterinary Practice in Veterinary Dermatology CertAVP(VD). This is my main interest, but I enjoy all aspects of Veterinary Practice. 

What pets do you have?

I have a Working cocker spaniel called Ralph and an Abyssinian cat called Luigi.

It would have to be Australia and New Zealand.
