Madeleine Caldwell
Client Care and Nursing Assistant

Madeleine has been part of the Mercer and Hughes team for over a year, bringing with her a lifelong love of animals that began when she started working with them at the age of 14. As a Client Care and Nursing Assistant, she has a particular soft spot for dachshunds but enjoys meeting all the wonderful pets that visit the practice. At home, Madeleine dotes on her very spoilt dachshund, Bruno, and her two equally pampered horses, Bill and Lani.
