Kia ora, my name is Geart-Jan and I'm a Dutch vet, coming in to join this great team at Selwyn Vet Centre! I earned my Bachelor (2017) and Master (2020) of Veterinary Medicine at Utrecht University, the Netherlands, and have worked as a Companion Animal vet since January 2021 and moved to New Zealand recently for a new experience and adventure. I enjoy the versatility of our job: conversations, examinations, surgeries etc. and of course the challenge to solve medical puzzles. A bit about me: In my spare time I enjoy going on tramps, going for a bicycle ride (as a real dutchie should) or going camping with my lovely wife. And I love learning new languages, so if you feel like speaking English, Dutch, German (and maybe even a little bit French and te Reo) during your consultation, you're more than welcome to do so!
We're your local vet! We are conveniently located in Rolleston on Jones road - we are close to Main South road with easy access from all directions and we have ample parking. We are not part of a chain or corporate - we are an independent and family-owned business.
