The Fletcher Vet Story

Dr Paul Robin was born and raised in Newcastle and graduated from The University of Queensland with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science in 1993.

He started practicing as a vet and spent time working in the UK and Hong Kong before moving back to NSW in 1997. Paul started The Vet Maryland in 1998, transitioning to Fletcher Veterinary Practice in 2009 with a single vet nurse for support. The team grew, and in 2021, renovations transformed the clinic into a state-of-the-art facility. We have since opened a new Fletcher Vet branch in the neighbouring suburb of Wallsend, to accommodate our growing clientele and staff.
