Kieran is published in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery and has attained his Master of Veterinary Medicine from Massey University.

Shing graduated from the University of Sydney in 2009 with Honours and has been with us since opening in 2012. She enjoys the diversity seen in general practice and never says no to an interesting surgical case! Shing is a local to the area and lives in her loving household with her husband, 2 young daughters, and two cheeky cats Mr Jangles and Momo. She has come back from maternity leave since Jan 2018 and consults on Thursdays, Fridays and some Saturdays.

Georgia AKA Gem, began her career with us in early 2015 and has been nursing for 7 years now. She moved to London in 2017 where she gained valuable knowledge and earned her place on the Register with the Royal College of Veterinary Services. She has now made her way back to Australia permanently as nothing felt quite like family, including our clients at Vets @ North Rocks. She enjoys all aspects of veterinary nursing but has a specific love of soft tissue surgery, laparoscopy and emergency medicine. She made the big trip to London with her 5 year old Golden Retriever 'Shylow' who loved the change of scenery and the adventures that London held.

Courtney has completed her Certificate IV in veterinary nursing and has been our highly esteemed Head Nurse for a few years. She took a short hiatus after having baby Gracie and is now back from maternity leave! Courtney is responsible for ensuring our in-hospital patients receive nothing but the best of care, whether they are in for a poodle clip or major orthopaedic surgery. She has a middle aged, slightly fiesty Chihuahua named Chanel, a clinic rescue cat named Moet, as well as a plucky budgie named Wilson.

Shaye went on to do her Certificate III in Captive animals at the Taronga Zoo Training Institute and she has loved working with wildlife and educating the public.

Heidi is our dedicated dog groomer who joined the team at the end of 2018. Heidi has had over two years of grooming experience working in a busy grooming salon in Sydney. Her passion for grooming started when she added her Lhasa Apso “Furbi” to her family. She has a talent for transforming our fur patients into the best versions of themselves, whether it be a hygiene clip and bath to a full teddy bear clip. Heidi takes Furbi everywhere she goes and they both enjoy exploring dog friendly places together!
