Hi, I’m Joao.

I am a Brazilian vet that graduated from Vicosa Federal University in 2001.

Most of my career I have worked as an Equine Reproduction Vet. During my studies to the Veterinary Board Examination to be able to work in Australia and New Zealand I did a lot of studying and practicing with Companion Animals.  I recently moved with my wife and little boy from Australia looking for a different lifestyle.

We are loving Auckland and I decided to change my career to be able to stay around. I fell very welcomed by the Pet Doctors team and the local community and friendly clients. 

During my free time you can find me fishing and playing with my kid around Eastern and Bucklands Beach.
