Maren graduated in Hannover, Germany in 1998. She worked in a mixed practice near Munich for three years, completing her Doctoral degree at Munich University. In 2001, Maren came to work for a year at Bay of Islands Veterinary Services in Kerikeri and loved it so much in so many ways she decided to stay for good!
I qualified as a veterinarian from Edinburgh University and have worked in Wales, Northern Ireland ,Australia and New Zealand in both mixed and companion animal practice. About 19 years ago we emigrated to New Zealand from N. Ireland where I worked as a small animal vet in both Timaru and Christchurch.
Natalie started her career as a vet nurse with us beginning on 2016, becoming qualified in 2018. Vet nursing allows Natalie to follow her passion of caring for animals and their families and working as part of a team. On her days off Natalie enjoys walking her dog Alfie, catching up with friends and spending time with her family.
