Dr. Rachael Williamson BvetMed MRCVS
Veterinarian
Rachael spent her first couple of years practicing in the UK. She arrived in Australia in 2013 and has been working here ever since. After being in Geraldton for almost 3 years she then spent some time working in Darwin and her last place of work was in Yamba in Northern NSW.
Lucky for us Rachael has decided the South West of WA is the best place to be in Australia and she is intending to settle in the area permanently. You will find Dr Rachael here at Heritage on most Saturday's :)
Kelsie Munro
Registered Vet Nurse
I started my traineeship at Heritage in 2015 and recently qualified as a RVN in 2017. I have one blue heeler Moe who keeps me on my toes and have a big love of art and the outdoors outside of nursing.
What I enjoy most about my job is the connections I make with my patients in care, as well as diagnostic imaging which I really enjoy doing and continue to learn about.
Danielle Jones
Registered Vet Nurse
My name is Danielle and I am a Trainee Vet Nurse at Heritage Vets, I am very passionate about nursing and absolutely loving it! I am very grateful to the Vets and Nurses who have trained me and given me lots of helpful tips along the way. I hope to qualify next year in 2019 but I will continue to study and complete short courses in certain aspects of nursing. Above is myself and Lucy.
Sarah Parrott
Registered Vet Nurse
Originally from the UK I settled in Australia after my travels. Having worked in other industries for years, I always had a love for animals and so I became qualified in 2012 as a vet nurse.I gained experience in some busy hospitals in Perth until 2 years ago when we moved south for the beach life with our dog monkey and my 4yr old boy.
Tammy Birch
Registered Vet Nurse
I completed my studies to become a vet nurse in 2005 through Swan TAFE. I thoroughly enjoy my job and the challenges and joy it can bring. I live in Vasse with my husband Matt, our two boys Joshua and Isaac and Chihuahua's Jimmy and Tianna. Outside of work I enjoy attending dog shows with Tianna and agility with Jimmy.
