About
Dr Abbie Tipler

My name is Dr Abbie Tipler and I am a Specialist Small Animal Surgeon at Veterinary Specialist Services in Brisbane, Australia.

What is a specialist? 

A specialist is a qualified veterinarian who has undergone intensive further training in a specific field. After many years of training (generally over a period of 5-6 years), candidates sit a rigorous examination process. To even be eligible to sit these examinations, you need to have accumulated hundreds of hours of surgical training within a specialist hospital, speaking credits and publications in veterinary journals. 

My passions are

  1. Small Animal Surgery

  2. Gender Equality #ilooklikeasurgeon

  3. Discussing Mental Health strategies that are relevant to our profession.

I hope you enjoy my content.

Thank you for reaching out!

You can contact me via the form to the left, or via my displayed contact details below. I apologise in advance for any delayed response. I work full-time as a specialist surgeon in private practice and have 2 kids to keep me busy when I'm not at work. I will genuinely try to get back in touch however. I do not give veterinary advice to the general public.
