BVSc MRCVS

Surgery Vet Intern

Lily qualified as a vet from the University of Pretoria in 2022 and practiced for a year as a mixed species state veterinarian in rural South Africa. In 2024 she moved to New Zealand to complete a rotating internship at Massey University. During this time she was able to nurture an interest in surgery and after a brief period working in ECC for Massey, she relocated to the UK to undertake a surgical internship at The Ralph.

Beyond work, Lily enjoys taking her painting set out with her on hikes. She has 2 spaniels patiently waiting back in South Africa (Alfie and Skyla).
