BVSc (Syd), Veterinarian
Dr Michael J Smith is a male Veterinarian.
I have been a vet for over 25 years now and still thoroughly enjoy what I do. I have a keen interest in surgery especially in orthopaedic operations such as cruciate repairs (Knee Reconstruction) and luxating patella surgery (Dislocating Knee Caps) which are common problem in dogs.
I am also interested in treating dogs with long standing skin problems and find it very rewarding to see animals recover from being extremely itchy & irritated to enjoying a normal life again. I love what I do, don't see it as "work" & enjoy the look on clients faces when their companion is back on the road to recovery.
I keep up to date by attending conferences & meetings regularly also the Australian Veterinary Association annual conferences and meetings.
I have completed post graduate studies in Small Animal Surgery.
