Dr Clare O’Connor

Head Veterinarian
BVSc

I joined the GWAH team in 2015.

I completed a Bachelor of Veterinary Science (HONS1) at the University of Sydney in 2010 and spent my initial working years at the RSPCA in Newcastle.This was an excellent starting point with a wide variety of cases and busy working schedule. I was fortunate enough to participate in lots of vaccination and desexing programs regionally.

I love working at GWAH. The standard of care here is excellent and all staff from reception, nurses, kennel hands and vets are quality. We also have a lot of fun together.

I love working with our amazing clients to treat their pets’ individual needs. It’s definitely team work! It has been wonderful getting to know clients over the years and seeing their pets grow up.

I really enjoy the variety of general practice, including emergency medicine, internal medicine, behavior, and soft tissue surgery. 

When not at work I am busy with my little family of two human babies and one fur baby, preferably at the beach in summer, or on the soccer pitch in winter.
