Dr. Luke Chambers

NAME:
Dr. Luke Chambers

TITLE:
Veterinary Surgeon

ACADEMIC QUALIFICATION:
Bachelor of Veterinary Science (BVSc), University of Pretoria, South Africa

CAREER PATH:
After qualifying, in 2018, I spent one year completing my Compulsory Community Service in Durban, South Africa. I then practiced in a predominantly small animal welfare clinic, also in Durban, before coming to join the SPCA in April 2021.

VETERINARY INTERESTS:
General practice, and I am slowly developing an interest in working and performance dogs.

REASONS FOR WORKING AT THE SPCA (HK):
The welfare aspect, gives me great fulfilment, allowing me to improve the quality of animals lives where normally this would not be possible. And being part of such a diverse team allows for continually learning and development as a professional.

PETS:
I have one cat, named Barney Sky. He was a stray kitten, who ended up never leaving the clinic I was working for. His favorite pastime is to investigate and terrorize unsuspecting clients while they wait in the clinic reception! Unfortunately for me, I had to leave Barney back in South Africa, but I know he is being well cared for and according to my ex-colleagues continues to wreak havoc!

INTERESTS:
Bicycles, nature lover and coffee addict. I am an avid cyclist who loves exploring the world on a bicycle.
