Dr. Jill Nash BVSc MACVSc MVetClinStud

Veterinary Associate

Jill graduated from University of Sydney in 1990 and went straight into small animal practice at Kuringai Veterinary Hospital in North Turramurra. She soon realised that she loved surgery and was lucky to be accepted to do a residency in small animal surgery at Sydney University. She received her Masters Degree in Veterinary Clinical Studies in 1996 and using these newly acquired skills Jill worked as a locum veterinarian for 3 1/2 years in England and south Wales, including a 6 month stint working for the BBC’s “Animal Hospital” program set in a beautiful part of the country called “Aylesbury”. Jill returned to Australia in 2000 and has diverse GP and hospital experience across Sydney before joining the Greencross Vets team in 2013. Currently she splits between Kuringai and Chatswood Greencross and gained a lot of surgical experience working at these two hospitals. Professionally, Jill has also become very interested in ultrasonography and looks forward to seeing many interesting cases which she can diagnose with Hornsby’s ultrasound scanner.

Outside of the clinic, Jill loves to walk her beloved Samoyed “Isla”, watch her sons play football and read lots of good books.
