Dr Andrea Khong

B.Sc (hons), DVM, PhD

Veterinarian/Practice owner

Andrea was born and raised in Perth, Western Australia. Following her passion for science, she completed a PhD in viral immunology in 2008 and went on to enjoy a fulfilling career in medical research. Her work included researching novel treatments for human parasitic diseases, and investigating immunotherapies for lung cancer and mesothelioma. Her desire to help animals as well as humans led her to study veterinary medicine at Murdoch University, where she graduated with a DVM. In 2018, she left Perth with her husband and cat, Remy, and they have enjoyed settling into their new home in central Victoria. Andrea has a special interest in palliative care and enjoys working with owners in order to achieve the best possible outcome for them and their pets.
