DR TRISTAN MARKS
B.V.Sc D.V.M.
Veterinarian
As a kid I lived in Port Macquire (NSW), Salt Creek (Coorong) and sunny Robe (South East SA), where I enjoyed the beaches, bodyboarding, fishing and diving. In 2000 circumstances shifted to the polar opposite when my family moved to China, where I enjoyed -30 degree temperatures, giant cities and air pollution, along with incredible food, people, lifestyle and experiences.

DR MELISSA FRISBY-SMITH
BVSc. D.V.M
Veterinarian
I moved to Adelaide in 2017 to study Vet, and graduated last year. I loved working with large and small animals during Uni, so I was ecstatic to be offered a job at MBVC where I get to continue to work with all sorts of animals.
DR LUCAS HAILS
Veterinarian
I grew up in the Adelaide hills on a hobby farm with many different types of animals some of which included cows, dogs, cats, chickens, ducks, geese and turtles. After schooling I moved to NSW to complete my studies at Charles Sturt University before deciding to move back home to Adelaide. I also represented SA in the 3km Steeplechase
DR MEG LEAREY
Veterinarian
I graduated from the University of Adelaide Veterinary School in 2014. I went on to spend a few years in mixed country practice throughout South Australia and then headed overseas to see what the rest of the world was doing. During this time I worked throughout the United Kingdom, Scotland, New Zealand and took a 6 month hiatus to teach wakeboarding in America and complete a snow season in Canada.
These days I am loving my time in Murray Bridge. Spending time with my partner, family, friends and my dogs! I have a keen interest in all animals great and small however have competed nationally with horses so naturally love working with them.
