Vets

James Carmichael

James graduated from the University of Queensland in St Lucia with a keen interest in mixed veterinary practice. He spent a few years in mixed practice in Beaudesert attending to everything from cows and horses to budgies and guinea pigs. He moved back to small animal practice on Brisbane’s southside where he still visited a few horses. As a veterinarian at the Albert Animal Hospital, James only sees small animals these days but enjoys the variety of species he is able to treat. His interests outside of work include fishing, camping and sailing. His great dane cross, Jess, and Labrador cross, Ruby, enjoy regular runs at the local dog release park when their dad is not at work.

Jason Schulz

Jason was born and raised a Brisbane local. He attended vet school at the University of Queensland in Brisbane before entering small animal practice in a busy Sydney hospital. Jason worked for number of years in Sydney before returning to the wonderful climate of Brisbane. Jason joined the Albert Animal Hospital only recently but is a well recognized face of veterinary practice on the southside. Jason’s pets include two much loved cats Bob and Lucy.

When Vic is not flat out working, or spending his time with family, one is most likely to find Vic in his rose garden.
