Matt Saunby

Matt qualified in 1999 from Bristol University. He joined a mixed practice in the forest of Dean where he built up his general practice experiences. It wasn’t long before he realised his interests lay in the cat and dog side of the work and so built up his small animal skills.

In particular Matt loves surgery, both soft tissue and orthopaedics. Since joining the practice in 2003 Matt has further developed his surgical skills and now covers most of our surgical work and also takes on some referral surgeries. Most of Matt’s continuing education is spent studying the latest, most up to date surgical procedures. Matt became a partner of the practice in 2007.

Previously a very keen all-round sportsman, playing for Halifax football club youths and Bristol badminton team, he was never short of exercise. However, since the start of his family his free time is somewhat reduced – most is spent doing DIY or mending things that have been broken! Ben was born in 2008, Neve in 2012 and identical twins Ella and Daisy in 2017.
