Meet the Founders

We are Dr Katie and Dr Lisa, two passionate and experienced veterinarians based in Perth. Originally from Glasgow and friends since the age of 15, we’ve built our lives here in Perth alongside our families and have grown to love the strong sense of community the area offers.

After graduating Katie in 2015 and Lisa in 2016, we both shared the same ambition to create an independent veterinary practice focused on exceptional care for small animals and a more personal experience for local pet owners.
