From 2009, Dr Jim Darmody and Dr Dave Warren took over from Dr Greg Kidd as the proprietors of Mira Mar Veterinary Hospital. 

After 26 years practicing in Albany, Greg wants to explore a few locum possibilities and work and travel with Vicki. He will bob up from time to time filling in at Mira Mar.  We wish Greg and his family all the best.
