The Practice was established in 1998 in Waterfall and originally included large animal work, horses and wildlife. As time went on, the focus shifted towards companion animals and birds with the previous owner showing a keen interest in wildlife work .

In 2017 Dr Nic Stirk took over the practise as the new owner and principal veterinary surgeon. Since graduating at the end of 2007 from Onderstepoort, Dr Nic has worked exclusively with small animals and exotic mammals like guinea pigs, rabbits, rats and other rodents. 

Dr Nic and Dr Caitlin look forward to welcoming you at the new practice and to your becoming a part of the Watercrest Vet family.
