What better way to kick off Vet nurse awareness week then meeting Jen! 😁😁

Jen is a vet nurse who has decided to branch out into small animals from a mainly equine background. She qualified in 2008 then slid sideways into stud work and equine veterinary nursing, both in NZ and abroad, before moving into small animal nursing. She is a mum to two young children, a somewhat nutty retired horse, a mad senior dog, and entirely too many cats! When she is not at work she likes to get out with the family to go camping and spend time at the beach, as well as visiting old work places to get her horsey fix.

Pet Of The Week 🐶🐶

We really wanted you guys to meet Mac!

Mac came to visit us last week for his castration and he was the goodest, bestest behaved boy eveeerrr and we all fell in love.
We thought it would be rude not to show you all his handsome face.

Thank you for being our star patient of the day Mac 🥰🥰🥰

Meet Steph!! ☺️ 🥰

Steph started working at Pet Doctors in early 2022 while she was still studying, and we were lucky enough to keep her on board once she graduated, and then get her back after some time working in Australia! Steph is a working Mum of 1, and a motivated and organised nurse who fits in well at our Tristram St hospital, ensuring our patients get top-tier care.

Another week another fantastic nurse! 😍😍

Hiya, my name is Michaela and I am a vet nurse who works between the Tristram St and Flagstaff clinics.
I have had a lifelong passion for general medicine and animals stole my heart from a young age, so I decided to pursue a career in vet nursing.
I started working at Pet Doctors Tristram Street in 2019 in a nurse support role while I was studying. I now have a Diploma in Veterinary Nursing.
I have a passion for diagnostics and emergency care. I try to give as many pats to as many animals as I can each day.
I have 2 dogs who are like my children and I have a crazy ginger cat which was a rescue handed in to one of our branches.
In my spare time I like to go to music gigs and get to the beach when I can.

Happy Monday everyone!
This week we would love for you to meet Dr Simon Clark 😄

Simon’s journey in veterinary medicine began in suburban Tāmaki Makaurau / Auckland, where his early passion for science and technology was nurtured by his family.
He graduated from Massey University’s Veterinary School in 2001 and honed his skills in mixed practice before embarking on a companion animal internship in the United States. Returning to New Zealand, Simon pursued advanced studies, earning a Companion Animal Master of Veterinary Medicine from Massey University.
With a solid foundation in clinical practice, Simon transitioned to a role as a technical advisor and product manager at Virbac, a leading veterinary pharmaceutical company. However, his love for hands-on patient care eventually drew him back to clinical practice in 2021.
Now based at Tristram Street Pet Doctors in Kirikiriroa / Hamilton, Simon has a special interest in dermatology and is trained in OssAbility TTA Cruciate Repairs. Beyond his expertise, Simon brings a genuine passion for improving the health and well-being of pets. He looks forward to welcoming you and your furry companions to Tristram Street Pet Doctors and providing the highest quality care. Schedule an appointment today and experience the difference firsthand.

Meet Dr Kerry!!

Kerry graduated from Massey University in 2016. She immediately moved to the UK where she began working as a companion animal veterinarian. She fell in love with the vibe of London, but New Zealand was always home.

After five years she has moved back to NZ to be closer to family, and joined Pet Doctors in 2022. This is her first time living in Hamilton.

Kerry enjoys all aspects of vet work, but has a special interest in cytology (the study of cells under the microscope) and laboratory diagnostics.

In her spare time she enjoys exploring the local areas on foot, competitive online gaming, and cross stitching. She has one feisty cat named Blue, who came with her from the UK. Blue frequently tries her best to relieve Kerry of unnecessary fingers, but Kerry loves her anyway.
