About Vet

Hi, my name is Jade and I am an Exotic Pet Vet based in the UK.

I graduated from the University of Edinburgh and have worked with exotic animals in general practice for my whole career. I have also been very fortunate to work with wildlife and exotic animals all over the world.

I like to treat all species, but I have a particular love for rabbits, having 3 rescue buns myself.

In 2025 I launched a Peripatetic Exotics Vet Service, Elevate Exotics, aiming to help local veterinary practices with their exotic patients. I have joined Vetster to be able to provide remote follow up consultations for patients, and also to help pet parents that are further afield. I want to work with you to help your pets.

If I think an in person vet appointment would be more appropriate for your pet and you are not able to travel to an exotics vet, I can write a suggested plan to help your local vet assess and treat your pet.

Please note I cannot provide UK prescriptions based on online consultations due to strict RCVS rules.

Dr. Jade did her best despite the fact that she could not examine my budgie personally. She was meticulous with the questions and answered all my questions with specific advice and steps. I hope my budgie will come out of this healthy and back to his old self <3

Really grateful for the knowledgeable assessment and professionalism. A lot was covered attentively in a short time and Dr. McKinlay also went above and beyond to make sure I was able to access any further resources locally. I feel very reassured and much more confident in providing good care for our birds.
