Judy
Dr Judy Harbison BVSc

Veterinarian/Practice Manager
Judy is the principal of the practice and has owned Bulimba Veterinary Surgery since September 1994.  She has grown the practice from a small one person clinic down on Oxford Street in Bulimba, to the multivet, purpose designed clinic that you see today.  Judy graduated from the University of Queensland in 1990, following in her fathers' footsteps to become a vet. Now that Judy is busy with a family of three small children  her clinical hours are only part-time but she aims to maintain regular contact with her clients and their pets. She shares her home with an aloof Burmese called Holly.

Jarrod
Dr Jarrod Drew BVSc
Veterinarian
Jarrod graduated from Queensland University in 2004.  Jarrod took on his first position in a Bayside Veterinary Clinic, situated in the area where he grew up.  After 2 years working in a horse and small animal practice, he decided that he was more suited to treating small animals.  Jarrod then ventured off overseas to work in London for another 2 years developing his skill as a practitioner.  He has now returned home, and has become a full time member here at the Bulimba Vet Surgery.  Jarrod currently doesn't have a pet of his own, so he looks forward to spending as much time as possible with you and your pets while they are in his care.

Angie has been working with Judy and the Bulimba Vet Surgery for more than ten years. She began as a junior when the practice was located on Oxford Street  and has been a valuable member of the practice ever since. Time off for a baby a couple of years ago saw a break in Angies' formal nursing studies, but her years of hands on experience, knowledge of clients and fantastic clinic organisational skills are second to none. Another Burmese fan, Angie is loving "mum" to Princess.  Currently Angie is on long service leave, but we look forward to her return to the team very soon.
