(BVSc)

A very familiar face to a lot of our clients, Upeka has been here at the clinic since 2006, after graduating from Melbourne University. She did take a little break from Corio in 2012 to do some travelling and work in the UK and Europe but thankfully made her way back to us in 2013.

Due to her experience, vision, and dedication to the clinic Upeka has become an integral part of our veterinary team here. She has undertaken a diploma in management and has completed a post graduate course in feline medicine, whilst having a strong interest in ophthalmology and dentistry.

Outside of work Upeka is a fan of the outdoors, spending a lot of time gardening, doing the occasional fun-run and also continuing her travel-bug ways with as many trips overseas and within Australia as she can manage. She is a black cat fan, and her spoiled, tiny, orphaned black kitten called Tuohy is now a big, beautiful boy who is definitely master of the house!

Upeka is a very important member of our team here at the Corio Vet clinic and has a very loyal client base who are always happy to have her see and treat their loved pets.
