Dr. Elana Meyering

Veterinarian
I am a passionate small animal veterinarian from sunny South Africa.
I qualified for my Bsc (Veterinary Biology) degree in 2010 and BVsc (Veterinary Science) degree in November 2014 at the University of Pretoria, Onderstepoort campus.
Back in South Africa I had the companionship of a wonderfully intelligent Rat Terrier for 13 years, but she sadly passed away from renal failure. Two years ago I rescued a sweet little Ragdoll cross who needs some special care. My hobbies are loads of reading, and a bit of hiking in between.”The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it” – Richard Bach
