Kieran graduated from the University of Sydney in 2010 with honours and started his career working in a busy practice on the North Shore. Kieran joined Vets @ North Rocks when we opened in 2012 and has since formed a strong bond with the local pet population and their loving owners. Kieran is published in the Journal of Feline Medicine and Surgery and has attained his Master of Veterinary Medicine from Massey University. Kieran's major interests are internal medicine and dermatology, though he loves the variety that comes with being a general practitioner. Kieran is the adoptive father of a local abandoned French Bulldog, Bambi, who has incidentally become a clinic mascot.

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. Shing is also our Practice Manager and is happy to receive feedback anytime to continue improving our service quality

Courtney grew up in a household full of cats, dogs, horses, ducks, chickens, rabbits - you name it! She has always worked with animals, starting out as a qualified dog groomer, and now as a veterinary nurse. Courtney has completed her Certificate IV in veterinary nursing and for the past Three years has been our highly esteemed Head Nurse. 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 very playful Border Collie named Ella & a clinic rescue cat named Moet, as well as a budgie named Wilson.

Sinead started her career in the veterinary industry in 2013 and joined the team in mid 2017. She lives locally and is currently studying Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing. Having grown up around cats, Sinead loves all things feline and one day, she hopes to have the opportunity to work with big cats. Outside of work, Sinead likes to garden, cook and spend time with her pet cat Charlie.

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!

Tasha works the reception and nursing shifts on the weekend. She is a serious animal lover, which you will certainly notice when you carry your fur baby through the front door!

Bambi is a French Bulldog who joined the team in 2015, after being surrendered to the clinic. Bambi made such an impact with her personality that Dr Kieran decided to become her new adoptive dad. She is a very clever girl who has learnt to beg, shake and lay down. Bambi also enjoys coming up to everyone for cuddles, eating everything and anything and professionally modelling for the Vets @ North Rocks social media pages!
