  • Stephanie Smith
    Practice Manager
    I grew up in Gippsland on a small beef farm. I have always had a great love of animals and loved helping the Vets whenever they visited our farm. I began working as a kennel hand and puppy school assistant at the Moe Vet Centre in 1992. I began full time nursing in 1996 and gained my Advanced Certificate in Veterinary Nursing (Now know as Cert. 4) in 1998. I worked my way up to Head Nurse and Financial Manager of the clinic before leaving with my husband Benton to travel and work overseas.

  • Samantha Milner
    Vet Nurse

    I joined the WGVC team in February 2012 after completing my Certificate IV in Veterinary Nursing at Werribee in 2011. I have always wanted to work with animals and find that nursing animals highly rewarding. I started out looking after my own horses with their various injuries and that was it, I was hooked. I completed a grooming course in May 2016 and since been doing grooming at the clinic on top of nursing. I reside in Drouin whilst my horses live in Jindivick and Warragul on separate agistments. I currently own three horses, a rabbit,  and 2 cats.

  • Marnie Barnett
    Vet Nurse

    I had the pleasure of joining West Gippsland Vet Care in 2015. I have been nursing for the past 22 years. Over this time I have seen and cared for many different animals but still believe the most important part of nursing is ensuring the animals in care are as happy and comfortable as possible at all times. I treat your animal as if they were my own.
