Emma Moran
Vet Nurse
Emma has been a member of the team since late 2017. She is a qualified vet nurse, having completed her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Box Hill Institute. Emma is a Richmond local and loves meeting clients outside of work on walks and in the parks and cafes (and pubs!) of Richmond. Emma has a special affinity with scent hounds -her recently departed Petit Basset Griffon Vendeen (or PBGV), Marcel, loved nothing more than ‘hounding out’ over all the smells after a game at the MCG and had a reputation for attracting grass seeds wherever he went!

Amy joined our team in 2018 after completing a Bachelor of Animal and Veterinary Bioscience at La Trobe University. She is currently studying her Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing.
