Our Veterinary Nurse & Reception Team
Gaya Elamparithi
Registered Veterinary Nurse
Certified Small Animal Rehab Therapist
Gaya qualified as an RVN in Perth, but joined us after completing her Animal Physiotherapy Diploma and working in Singapore for several years. Gaya's love and passion for animals started at a young age and she made her first step in an animal related career at the tender age of 13. She first started in the area of pet grooming and then decided to take things to the next level by coming to Perth to study and achieve a Cert III in Animal Studies, progressing onto a Cert IV in Veterinary Nursing. Gaya quickly developed a keen interest in trying to better manage her patient's pain levels alongside a desire to minimize the need for medications, and she began her journey in alternative medicines. Gaya's commitment to this form of pain management has seen her obtain further qualifications in Myofunctional Massage Therapy, a Diploma in Small Animal Physiotherapy in College of Animal Physiotherapy in London, and a Diploma in Small Animal Hydrotherapy in London. With her many years of experience in the veterinary industry, as well as her additional skills in animal pain management, Gaya is an asset to our rehab practice here at Vogue Vets, and we look forward to helping her achieve her lifelong goals.
