Meet Our Team

Dr Michael Smith - Principal Veterinarian

With over 25 years of experience, I still find immense joy in being a veterinarian. My focus is surgery, particularly orthopedic procedures such as cruciate repairs and luxating patella surgery in dogs. Addressing long-standing skin problems in dogs is another area I am passionate about. Witnessing animals transition from discomfort to normalcy is truly rewarding. I'm dedicated to staying current by attending conferences and Australian Veterinary Association events, always striving for excellence.

Beyond the clinic, I enjoy the beach with my children and playful pets, including a Staffy named Billy, a French Bulldog named Bruno, a rescue greyhound named Bella, a snake called Nagini, and my Bearded dragon, Blue Beard.

For 14 years, I've been an integral part of Stella Street Veterinary Clinic. With 17 years of nursing experience, I'm deeply committed to animal welfare. As the Practice Manager and Head Nurse, I'm involved in all aspects of the clinic. Every day is a new adventure, and I'm proud to work with our incredible team. My rescued pets, including Tilda, Summer, Timothy, Allen, Jenny, Libby, Alice, Lillian, Flo, and Brian, keep me busy when not at the clinic.

Chris - Veterinary Nurse

I've been nursing for 15 years, with the past nine years dedicated to Stella Street. My interests span surgery, reception, and medical nursing. My rescued cat, Beezle, is a cherished companion. Outside work, I'm a music enthusiast who enjoys attending gigs.

Fallon - Veterinary Nurse

Starting as a volunteer in 2016, I completed my Certificate 4 in Veterinary Nursing at Stella Street. Now a full-time member, I thrive in surgical nursing. My golden Labrador, Bodie, and black cat, Bobby, keep me company outside the clinic. I love the beach, movies, and shopping when not caring for animals.

Together, our Stella Street Veterinary Clinic team is dedicated to providing the best care for your beloved pets while ensuring you're part of our extended family.
