Welcome to Greencross Vets Livingstone Rd

At Greencross Vets Livingstone Road we understand that our pets are our family, so they deserve the very best of care. We pride ourselves on delivering the highest standards of veterinary practice with a focus on achieving the best outcomes for our patients and their humans.

Our veterinary team shares a wealth of clinical experience with an emphasis on continuing education to ensure that we remain at the forefront of general practice veterinary care. We offer a comprehensive range of professional veterinary services, including dentistry, surgery, x-rays and diagnostic medicine through to preventative health care and weight loss programs. We also offer a specialist ultrasound service.

For those with cats, we understand the stress that a visit to the vet can cause our feline friends. To minimise the stress, we have a dedicated cat waiting area away from the hustle and bustle of the front entrance and a dedicated cat ward to help them feel safe during their hospital stay. We also offer luxurious cat boarding facilities and have Feliway diffusers that dispense a cat-calming pheromone throughout the hospital.

After travelling through NSW and beyond (even spending time in Africa on safari), she has returned to small animal practice because of her love of the unique human-animal bond we share with our pets. Lucy has a particular interest in all aspects of surgery, particularly soft tissue. In her spare time you will find her operating on houseplants, hitting the gym or snorkelling! Lucy is Sydney born and bred, and lives with her ‘special’ rescue cats Garlic and Chilli, and Indian Ringneck parrot, Barb.

Dr Jo-Lyn Tan BVSc MANZCVS (Small Animal Medicine)

Lyn’s fondness of animals started at an early age. In kindergarten she could be seen presenting her favourite book on “Pets” in show and tell. She was drawn to Veterinary science because of the diversity of her patients and the wide spectrum of skills she gets to develop and practice. You never know what your day will be like as a Vet!

Lyn graduated from the University of Sydney in 2010 with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSc). She worked in a mixed practice on the outskirts of Sydney in her first year before working in a small animal practice near Cronulla for 4 years.
She then moved to Penrith, working in a very busy clinic for 2 years before joining the team at Livingstone Rd. Lyn passed her exams in ‘Small Animal Medicine’ in 2018 and became a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (MANZCVS). She finds intrigue in working up more complex medical cases but also has a special spot in her heart for surgery and ultrasonography.

In her spare time, she can be found extending her love of animals to those that live in the ocean as she is an avid scuba diver and passionate about conservation. Her fur family includes “Tessie” the Sheltie x Corgi, “Snowflake” the Maltese & “Domino” her handsome black cat with his signature white moustache.

After graduating from the University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science and a Bachelor of Science (Veterinary) he worked in private practice in Sydney’s south-west before joining the team at Livingstone Road in 2017. Evan enjoys the variety of cases seen in general practice and has participated in conferences and workshops covering disciplines as diverse as dentistry, behaviour, neurology and emergency medicine.
