❤️🐀We had a very special little visitor Dipsy in last week for a lump removal. She had a large growth on the side of her neck which we hoped would resolve with medication but when it didn’t we had to make the tough decision to go ahead with surgery. Anaesthetic risk is much higher in our very small patients but Dipsy was a star patient and is now back home recovering well. 🐀❤️

Staff Spotlight Series!

Our wonderful and talented horse girl Prue!

Prue Carleton-Carlos
Qualified Veterinary Nurse

Prue was born and raised on the Mornington Peninsula and has been immersed in the equine and farming communities since she was a child! Her family was initially from the UK and have shared with Prue a strong passion for horses, starting to ride at the early age of 4 years old!

Prue is currently studying a Bachelor of Veterinary Technology part time during which she has completed her certificate 3 in veterinary nursing and is soon to sit her final examination for her certificate 4!

Prue can be seen both in the clinic and the large animal barn, she loves all creatures great and small but has a strong desire to work with all large animals.

Prue has an enormous family of animals, 10 horses, 2 cows, numerous chickens (often rescued), 2 cats and 3 dogs. She has two riding horses, Louie (Irish sport horse) and Joey (stock horse x) and her sidekick Zola, the Hungarian vizsla.

When not at work Prue’s usually riding, on the beach with Louie or Zola, 4wding or camping.

Favourite part of the job:
Getting to see all different animals- especially the large animals

Favourite pet name:
Mac and Cheese the Border Collie and Corgi duo

Fun fact:
Before starting her studies (currently Bachelor of Veterinary Technology, soon to be Veterinary School) Prue spent her time as an international groom for eventers, showjumpers and para dressage riders.

Dr Tim’s interesting case to close out his spotlight week is a stand out because it’s a Bison! Not something we see often, if ever, on the Mornington Peninsula. This guy had a problem with his eye, making Tim the perfect choice of vet with his interest and skills in ophthalmology! Unfortunately there was no access to suitable facilities to get a close up exam, but Tim was able to make a provisional diagnosis of keratitis and had to think on his feet to come up with a treatment plan that didn’t involve having to handle this guy every day. A course of steroids has hopefully resolved the issue and he can go on to hang out with his cow friends. 🦬🦬🦬🦬🦬🦬🦬
