Kate Hartley- Small Animal Specialist Vet Nurse and Clinical Consultant Herbalist
Our Vet Tech Kate is arguably the most experienced small animal clinician. Before coming to us, she and her Vet husband owned and managed a clinic for small animals in Sydney. Kate has now been with Herbal Treatments well over 17 years and is relied upon for her extensive knowledge of illness and disease in domestic animals.
Kate is our small animal expert as well as having a very solid equine background, riding and handling horses since a teenager. Kate works 4 full time days each week and is in first hand contact with owners during the time they need help and advice as well as herbal treatments. Kate has intimate knowledge of the veterinary medical approach to dealing with problems and she is the person you should ask to talk to regarding existing treatments and medications.

George Peterson; After 17 years with Herbal Treatments George has worked his way into the position of Practice Manager. George is now central to the day to day work of the Herbal business. He manages workflows for Clinical staff and oversees the operations of the Herbal dispensary. George has limited mobility (caused by childhood Polio), but, thanks to the technologies of the 21st century the Practice can accomodate his needs by enabling work from his home/office, for much of the working week.
Other essential Staff. We have other staff who work for us either full or part time, in manufacturing herbal extracts land in packaging orders. Without these people we would not be able to do what we do.
We are associated with other manufacturers of herbal extracts who prepare some of our specific tinctures for grazing animals. These are mostly herbs extracted in organic apple cider vinegar.
