Our Amazing
Veterinarians
Dr Tony Atyeo
Practice Owner / Principal Veterinarian
Tony completed his Bachelor of Veterinary Science at the University of Sydney in 1972 then came to work at a little vet clinic in Gawler owned by Dr Bruce Eastick.
Now, with over 45 years of experience caring for your furry, feathered, scaled or tailed family members, Tony is the owner and Principal Veterinarian of that little clinic – Gawler Veterinary Services.
Tony has mentored students and graduates from all the Australian and New Zealand vet schools, and helped many new veterinarians get their start in the industry.
​
Tony lives in Willaston with his Poodle Ted and a pandemonium of rescued parrots.
Dr Ivan Li
Veterinarian
Here we have Dr. Ivan, our latest graduate joining the team this year. He is originally from Hong Kong, came over to study Veterinary Bioscience and Veterinary Medicine at the University of Adelaide about 7 years ago.
Dr. Ivan is a passionate vet who cares a lot for your furry friends. He speaks fluent cantonese, mandarin and english so don’t be afraid to have a chat with him if you needed any help.
When he’s having a break from the clinic, he will be spending time at home with his lovely cat, Kuro. He is also passionate about cooking, maybe one day he will welcome you with a consult room filled with his delicious food!
Dr Rachel Lim
Veterinarian
Rachel is originally from Malaysia and moved to Australia nine years ago to complete her Doctor of Veterinary Medicine studies at the University of Adelaide.
She is a dedicated small animal veterinarian who loves providing compassionate care and thrives on the challenge of complex case management. At the clinic, you’ll often find her cuddling with the resident cat, Edna—who has her completely wrapped around her little paws! Outside of work, Rachel enjoys bouldering, hiking, and experimenting in the kitchen.
She is fluent in English, Mandarin, Cantonese, and Hokkien, allowing her to connect with a diverse range of pet owners and break down language barriers in veterinary care.
