Rob graduated from the University of Melbourne Veterinary School in 2000 and joined the Eureka Veterinary Group in 2008. In 2012, Rob became a director in the Eureka Veterinary Clinic.
Over the years, Rob has developed a passion for veterinary science and for not just helping pets, helping their owners as well. After all these years, Rob still gets excited to come to work. He enjoys the challenge of medical and surgical cases, talking with existing clients and meeting new clients as well as helping his fellow vets do the best they can.
Part of the enjoyment of veterinary science is the constant learning and Rob has undertaken post graduate studies in both small animal medicine, small animal surgery with a strong interest in orthopaedic and soft tissue surgery, veterinary ophthalmology and just to be different, chickens.
Outside of work he is kept busy with three children, dog (Shirley), 2 alpacas (Reggie and Graham), a miniature donkey (Nelson) and 8 chickens (Francis, Florence, Fluffy, Fidget, Freya, Felisha, Felicity, Funky). My other interest includes water-skiing and however, I really enjoy getting out on the mountain bike and heading to the hills around Ballarat.
Currently Rob is president of the Ballarat branch of the Australian Veterinary Association.
