Dr Michelle Egan MVB
Veterinarian
Michelle graduated from veterinary science in 2014 and joined the team at Raby Bay Vet in March 2025. With a strong passion for surgery, she has gone on to complete further postgraduate exams and is proud to hold Memberships in Small Animal Surgery with the Australian & New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists.
Michelle thrives on the precision and problem-solving that surgery demands, and she’s dedicated to providing the highest standard of care for her patients - whether it’s a routine desexing or a complex soft tissue procedure.
Outside of work, Michelle enjoys spending time with her family, travelling, and diving into all kinds of DIY projects and crafts at home. She shares her life with Harris, a very handsome (and energetic!) German Shorthaired Pointer.
Seeba Hetherington
Team Leader & Veterinary Nurse
Seeba’s love for animals started at a very young age telling her parents she wanted to be a “doggy doctor". She was able to fulfill this passion by studying and working as a veterinary nurse from the age of 17. Seeba has been nursing since 1995 and started her career as an emergency nurse in a 24 hour vet hospital. Seeba enjoys helping animals in need and giving guidance and support to their owners. During her career she has gained a special interest in surgery and orthopedics.
At home, Seeba has a quite few rescued animals including: Ginghi a ginger tabby cat who is missing one eye, a Pomeranian puppy who survived an emergency C-section, a Frenchie surrended due to illness, a conure parrot, and a turtle. In her spare time loves spending it being a mum, fishing, reading, motorbike riding, and keeping active.
