Our Story
Welcome to the Googong Veterinary Centre, a fresh new veterinary practice on Caragh Avenue, located in the Googong North Village Centre. From brand new purpose built facilities, Googong Veterinary Centre is part of Googonian life, providing veterinary services to the communities of Googong, Burra, Royalla and surrounding areas.
Founded on the philosophy of happy people and pets, the dynamism behind this new and exciting venture is Dr Mark Carter BVSc, a veterinarian who brings with him over 20 years of experience.
Mark knows all about community having grown up on a farm near the small township of Barraba, northern NSW. He also comes to Googong having spent 20 years in the NSW Western Plains city of Dubbo. A role served passionately for the city and surrounding regions. Mark has a history of embracing community roles in sporting clubs, professional committees, advocacy groups and even international collaborations.
Assisting Mark is senior veterinary nurse Karen Warner. A qualified veterinary nurse for over 20 years, Karen’s experience is extensive. During her long career she has worked with passion to aid the people of Canberra and their pets. She is very eager to be taking on this role for Googong and thrilled to be playing this vital part.
Supported by both Jerrabomberra and Queanbeyan Veterinary Hospitals, Googong Veterinary Centre is an essential element to the Googonian way of life – we are very excited and looking forward to sharing it with you and your pets.
