Alistair Marks B.V.M.&S. Cert.V.R. Cert.S.A.O. M.R.C.V.S.Alistair founded the practice in 1996. He is a 1983 graduate from the Dick Vet here in Edinburgh. After qualifying, he was the house surgeon at the Dick Vet (being a house surgeon is a little like a house wine - cheap and cheerful and always available). At the end of this year, he gained the RCVS postgraduate Certificate in Veterinary Radiology. After stints working in practice in Dunfermline and Hull, he took over a small animal practice in Leamington Spa. Whilst there he gained the RCVS postgraduate Certificate in Small Animal Orthopaedics in 1994. However, the desire to return North lead to the sale of that practice in 1995 and his family's return to Scotland. Alistair is married to Penelope, a PhD in genetics and a teacher and has three children Phoebe, Angus and Malcolm. The picture shows our two ancient Labradors, Blot and Button who preceded the children and who were a lot less trouble!. Unfortunately they are now no longer with us but their image remains in appreciation of the many happy years of companionship and pleasure they afforded us. We now enjoy the very lively company of Peta, a Chesapeake Bay Retriever and Biba, a Hungarian Vizsla who can be seen on the dog trike page

where he gained a broad range of
experience.
He particularly enjoys the challenge of
skin problems but also the variety that general practice provides.
He has two snakes which are currently
waiting to make the move down from the Highlands as soon as space
permits.
In his spare time he enjoys walking,
cooking and avoiding doing the dishes afterwards!
