Gawler

Dr Jerin J

I graduated with a Doctor of Veterinary Medicine from the University of Adelaide. Since then, I’ve worked as a veterinarian in both Melbourne and Brisbane, gaining valuable experience across a range of clinical settings. I later spent a year working in the UK and travelling throughout Europe.

My special interests include dermatology and soft tissue surgery. What I love most about being a vet is the opportunity to build long-term relationships with clients.

Outside of work, I enjoy travelling, spending time with friends, and consider myself a bit of a coffee connoisseur. At home, I’m currently fostering Bandit, a cheeky Cavalier who’s full of personality.
