The vetcare team

Experts ready to help

Dr Morné de Wet is our principal veterinarian with more than 10 years’ veterinary experience.  He has a love for surgery and has attended numerous surgical courses in order to be able to offer your precious pets more specialised procedures like orthopaedic and spinal surgery. Dr Morné is passionate about his patients and loves nothing more than seeing injuries heal and a patient going home to run around with their family.

Dr Morné is supported by Drs Nico Du Preez, Marais Cilliers and Carina di Sibio, who enjoy nothing more than a day surrounded by pets. Drs Nico and Marais bring their dogs to work!

In addition to surgical and medical services, our practice also offers nutrition advice, a grooming parlour, dental services, an in-house laboratory and imaging and much, much more.

Please give us a call or better yet, pop in to meet the team and start a journey of health with your pet!

Dr Nico du Preez

Dr Nico is one of those people who make you instantly feel at home. His engaging, smiling personality takes away any anxiety you or your pet might be feeling when visiting the clinic and his love for animals really shines through

Dr Marais Cilliers

Dr Marais is so passionate about caring for animals that he volunteers at animal welfare at weekends so that those animals benefit from his expertise too. The greatest love of his life, though, remains his dog Rocky.

Dr Carina di Sibio
