Kristi completed her Bachelor of science degree with honours in zoology and graduated with first class honours from her Veterinary science degree. In 2000 she also completed a post graduate diploma in small animal internal medicine.

Dr Sarah Toogood


Sarah graduated from Murdoch University in Western Australia, in 2006, and shortly after this returned to her home state of Victoria. She has enjoyed working at Geelong vet clinics for the past two years but, looking for a busier clinic and more challenging cases, joined our team in December 2008. Sarah has a keen interest in both medicine and surgery, and loves attending veterinary conferences, lectures and product presentations which expand her knowledge.

She does not yet have any animals of her own but is searching for the perfect pet (dog or cat). When she is not working, Sarah enjoys her gym classes, discovering new city night spots, dining out and playing with her house-mate's dog.

Dr Wei Kee Ang

Wei Kee (or you may know her as Qi) graduated from the University of Melbourne with Honours in 2009 and has joined the clinic in Jan 2010. She was first introduced to the clinic when she did work experience there as a student and is now delighted to be part of the team. Qi has also passed the North American Veterinary Licensing Examination and has special interests in medicine and diagnostic imaging.

Qi owns a Golden Retriever called Champagne who currently lives with her family in Singapore. Champagne has often been described by her as a ‘himbo’ (male version of a bimbo)!

Qi enjoys being involved in the community. As a student, she participated in the “Western Arnham Land Dog Health Program.” Together with a team of vets, she travelled to remote parts of the Northern Territory to provide free healthcare to the dogs of the indigenous communities. She looks forward to participating in the program again and returning to visit the Dog Dreaming Country.
