Meet The Team We are proud to have two of our vets with Vet GDP Certification and keen to mentor students
Reception Vital to the smooth running of the practice are our receptionists; Anthea, Michelle, Sarah and most recent, Rachel. Anthea is a cat lover and is often involved in the rehoming of stray and abandoned cats and kittens. When not working, Michelle spends time on her mixed farm with sheep, cattle and her own herd of pedigree Beef Shorthorn. Michelle can help you with your farming supplies; in particular wormers and vaccines. Sarah is another approachable and friendly face to help you with whatever queries you may have. Our newest addition is Rachel, who has a financial background and is enjoying helping to care for you and your pets.
Jeannette Andrew Jeannette is the practice principal, who has lived and worked in Huntly for over 20 years, and previous to that in Banff. She is a Glasgow graduate and truly mixed vet with a wealth of experience. Outside work she is an active member of the Huntly rotary club, and also spends her spare time doing pastel portraits of cats, dogs, horses and cattle. Jeannette is a fan of Golden Retrievers and can always be seen with her latest Goldie, Bentley.
Sarah Hamilton (nee Oliver) Sarah has worked at Strathbogie Vets since 2011, a graduate of Glasgow Veterinary School. She enjoys working in the northeast of Scotland and went to school in Aboyne. Sarah is now part time, as she is busy with her new daughter and husbands farm. She has many interests but a lot of her spare time is spent walking in the hills or at the beach with her Cocker Spaniel Panda.
Zara Francis Zara is a local lass who hails from Grange. She graduated from Glasgow Vet School in 2020 and has since become an asset to the Strathbogie team, keeping us all right with her impressive organization skills. Zara has a particular interest in all things equine but enjoys all aspects of the mixed job. She spends her spare time hill walking with her Jack Russel terrier Darcy and riding her horse Nelly
Olivia Busson Olivia joined the practice in 2017 after graduating from Glasgow Vet School. During the last 4 years she has developed a keen interest in all aspects of farm animal medicine but enjoys the challenge and variety of working in mixed practice. Olivia enjoys taking her mad Border Collie, Gin, for walks up hills, through forests and to the beach. She also likes cooking, baking and travelling both near and far! Having 4 years’ experience, Olivia is now taking on more responsibility with the running of the practice
Lucy Thompson: Lucy is from the Stirlingshire countryside and a graduate from Glasgow Vet School. She has worked at Strathbogie since 2019. Lucy enjoys the variety of a mixed veterinary practice, and has a particular interest in surgery. She enjoys horse-riding, dancing, taking dogs to the beach as well as swimming/paddle boarding in Lochs.
Louisa Watt One of our newest vets who studied at the Dick Vet and lives locally with her husband and dogs Kyla and Evie. Louisa is kept busy growing her own herd of cattle whilst also helping at the family farm. As you may have guessed she has a keen interest in cattle and is happiest covered in mud. Louisa has 4 years experience as a mixed vet and can turn her hand to anything small and large, always with a smile on her face.
Louis Last but not least is Louis, our resident office cat. He is a Ragdoll. You may see him wandering around outside the front door when the weather is fine!
