Veterinarian

Mark has been a Veterinary Surgeon for nearly four decades, having graduated from the University of Queensland in 1983. Mark started mixed practice [dogs/cats/cattle/horses/pigs etc] in the Beenleigh and northern Gold Coast region, where he still lives.
After several years at his first clinic he travelled overseas for work, occupying several positions in England and Wales. Returning to Australia after a year he then worked in North Queensland briefly before working in Coffs Harbour for several years before moving back to Brisbane again. Mark has now been working for Greencross for over 11 years.
Apart from his wife and daughter, the other love of his life is Maple, his nearly 7 year old Australian Kelpie. Maple makes him smile every day and keeps him sane. She is the boss of the household and lucky for Mark and his wife, Maple shares the house with them.
Apart from walking Maple, his other main interests include rugby [union of course…], having progressed from playing to watching, and the odd spot of gardening.
