This is a story about a Scottish lass, who at the age of 22 came to Australia for an 18 month stint to have a crack at being a vet. Little did she know she would meet Mr Right, have three children and two decades later, own and operate three veterinary clinics across the mid north of South Australia.
Dr Louise Lehmann is originally from a dairy farm in south-west Scotland. Her first pet was a horse called Mr Wellington,a much loved pony who ignited her passion to be a vet. .
Lou talks about her life in Scotland and how she was discouraged to be a vet. She also chats about the challenges facing the shortage of vets in rural Australia and her personal battle with breast cancer.
Lou's energy and positivity is infectious. Her candid account of her life is to be applauded.
