Melanie (Mel) Conibeer.

Mel is our new Practice Manager and has been working with us since the middle of 2009.
Mel emigrated to Australia in 1982 with the intention of living in Sydney, but came to Canberra for a family holiday and has been here ever since. She loves Canberra and the coast.

Like all of us Mel loves all animals (except for snakes!) and has one dog name Shelby. Shelby is a little bit chubby so Mel has signed him up to our weight loss clinic, which is being run by one of our nurses Sarah, and is hoping he can take out the title of "biggest loser" for the year!

Mel is a bit of a jack of all trades, not only is she our Practice Manager, she also enjoys gardening, dress making, quilting, and she's not a bad cook either. Mel also makes tote bags including carry bags for our pampered little pooches and puss cats, made to order.
