VETS
Harley Maxwell
Harley graduated from the University of Melbourne in 1979. He came to Corio in February 1983 having previously worked in a mixed practice in Mildura. Harley has developed interests in cardiology, skin disease, and behaviour having done post graduate training through the University of Sydney in these areas. (Harley has a couple of pets, but they're a bit camera shy!)
John Langley
John is a University of Melbourne graduate of 1981. As well as enjoying overseas veterinary adventures, John has developed a keen interest in radiology and ophthalmology, having completed postgraduate training in these disciplines. He is also our main surgeon. John came to Corio in 1982 after working in a mixed practice in Tasmania. John is pictured with Ras, who used to be quite cute, but now is getting a bit old and manky. A bit like his owner.
Rachael Johnstone
Rachael originally worked for us after graduating in 2000. After stints in Warnambool and the Western Animal Emergency Centre, she has been back working with us in between raising a family. Rachael is currently on maternity leave. Rachael is here with Homer who loves giving and receiving cuddles.
Upeka Nanayakkara
Upeka has been with us since December 2006. She has developed quite a following amongst the clients, who appreciate her compassion and enthusiasm. She always has the animal's interests at heart which is exactly the attitude that the clinic wishes to foster.
Upeka's furry family member is Benji. He was adopted from a shelter ten years ago, and in his last few years he had a number of problems that unfortunately got the better of him in May 2010. His cute character was loved and adored and he is greatly missed.
Jane Kerr
Jane started with us in mid 2008. She graduated from the University of Queensland in 2001, although is a born and bred Western Districts girl having grown up in Portland. Jane gained most of her experience working in mixed practice in Tasmania.
Jane is pictured with her excitable lab cross, Jenna.
