Dr Alison loved studying everything animal care related so much she went back for more and obtained her membership of Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in 2006, her Graduate Diploma Animal Chiropractic from RMIT, Melbourne in 2009 and completed a course in Tui Na Chinese massage in 2009.
Dr Alison’s veterinary career began in a large and small animal practice in Bathurst (where Dr Jenny had also been working), then worked in the UK for seven years in various rural and city practices including Belfast and Ballyclare in Northern Ireland, London and Chandlers Ford near Southampton. Upon her return in 2005 she started at Mona Vale Veterinary Hospital.
Orthopaedics, general surgery and the management of pain in dogs and cats are the areas of veterinary medicine and surgery that Dr Alison has a special interest in. Her post graduate studies have all been geared towards providing a holistic supportive plan to maintain the mobility of our elderly dogs and cats and provide long term relief from chronic pain.
