Robyn Bailey
Receptionist

After working at the front desk of a busy public hospital department, Robyn decided dealing with four-legged patients would be a welcome change.  An animal lover since childhood, having grown up with two Australian Terriers, Robyn's long term goal is to find a pet-friendly property so she can welcome a dog back into her life.  In the meantime, she is making do with a offering all VSC's patients a pat and cuddle as they come for their appointments.

Emma

Emma Pearce
Receptionist

Emma describes her role in reception as her dream job - she was a client service manager for nearly a decade before swapping the corporate world for property maintenance, however she couldn't say no when a friend recommended this job to her. She loves all animals but does admit to a soft spot for Labradors (particularly chocolate) and can empathise with those clients who come to see Dr Black as he has operated on her own Lab long before she was working at VSC.
