I grew up in Australia and practiced there for 4 years before moving to the UK in 2017. I have an interest in all parts of general practice, everything from consulting with birds and pocket pets to surgery on our big London dogs. Outside of work I play AFL for a local team and enjoy skiing, surfing and climbing.

I've worked at Hornsey in various roles for 29 years and have loved getting to know all our local clients and pets. I have a diploma in Feline Medicine, and I’ve gained an enormous amount of experience caring for older pets. At home, I have two cats; one maine coon and a rather distinguished domestic long-haired cat.

I started as a cattery assistant and part-time receptionist and loved it so much that I went on to become a Veterinary Nurse. I particularly enjoy working with cats but I’m also known and loved by our dog visitors too. At home, I have a large collection of pets and I’m nicknamed ‘Noah’ for my ever-increasing animal family.

Amazing, caring vet with highly professional, knowledgeable and caring staff. My cat Barry had a wonderful experience at this practice two weeks ago. From being able to accommodate us at short notice through the extremely professional reception and nursing staff to the wonderful vet Victoria, everyone was most helpful, supportive and understanding of a cat that had been refusing to eat and his crying owner, i.e. me. Victoria has excellent listening skills and it was apparent that she was really trying to understand everything that had happened to the cat and took all my concerns very seriously. Her advice worked like magic and, within just a few hours, my cat was back to his former playful and hungry self. I am grateful beyond words and would not take Barry anywhere else now. Thank you so much for helping us in our hour of need and for restoring Barry's health!

Amazing, caring vet I never normally write Google reviews but on this occasion I simply have to share the amazing experience my cat Barry had at this practice yesterday. From being able to accommodate us at short notice through the extremely professional reception and nursing staff to the wonderful vet Victoria, everyone was most helpful, supportive and understanding of a cat that had been refusing to eat and his crying owner, i.e. me. Victoria has excellent listening skills and it was apparent that she was really trying to understand everything that had happened to the cat and took all my concerns very seriously. Her advice worked like magic and, within just a few hours, my cat was back to his former playful and hungry self. I am grateful beyond words and would not take Barry anywhere else now. Thank you so much for helping us and for restoring Barry's health! Really big thanks also to the wonderful lady who answered my call at MediVet Stamford Hill on Tuesday morning and advised me that, even though they were fully booked, there were appointments available at the Hornsey branch - your help and support is very much appreciated!

Victoria Gijon the Vet was a great adviser as I popped in to buy a safety muzzle to prevent my yorkie biting other female dogs. She has been such an embarrasment and is know the neighbourhood park🙄🙈By luck I mentioned I was travelling and Victoria was prompt to advise me as I was rushing to get ready to leave to prepare for my flight next day to Brazil with Lola. I presumed I did not need anything else as she already had her passport and vaccinations up to date. I WAS SO WRONG! After confirming everything I managed to postpone flight and get this done. If it was not for Victoria, I would have been in a lot of trouble with my lola when arriving in Brazil. Came back next day to proceed with paperwork and they managed to fit me in their busy schedule. Great Job! Thank you. 😊

I always feel in safe hands at Hornsey Vets, Victoria is amazing. It’s great that you can see the same vet and build up a great understanding of one and another and they become familiar to the pet. Seeing the same faces is very important when I have to visit the vets. This is what makes them special as it’s not found in other practices .

Dr. Victoria Smith Gijon is an excellent profesional in her field. She helped us prepare our cat Lilly to be repatriated to our home country Costa Rica. She guided us through the process with great clarity. When the process got complicated due to government closures, she contacted all authorities and helped us get through the last bits of paperwork. We are incredibly thankful with her and the practice.

This latest appointment was via Zoom due to the current situation, and although more challenging in someways, it was less so in others (my cat does not travel well or appreciate being handled). The consultation was thorough, collaborative and course of treatment (and possible subsequent treatments) explained clearly and kindly. Medication was then delivered to me the following day (I could have gone to collect it that day), and my cat started to respond positively to the treatment on day two and is now feeling much better. Thank you.
