Presenter(s)

Dr Kim Kelly
Dr Kim Kelly has been a mixed animal practitioner since graduating from UQ in 1988, working across 3 states of Australia and a stint in the UQ. In 2010, seeing the frustration of delays in receiving results for semen morphology for clients testing bulls for sale and for herd use, she trained and studied at that time to become accredited under the ACV morphology accreditation scheme with Dr Peter McAuliffe. In addition visited Dr Peter Chenoweth in Wagga. In 2012 she achieved membership with the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientist reproduction chapter. In 2014 she established her own laboratory Kelly Ag Morphology Services running this whilst working in mixed practice on the western downs, receiving samples more locally but also from all across the country. A member of the UQSMSP since its inception in 2014 which largely replaced the acv scheme in order to standardize morphology examination and reporting.
Dr William Nason
Will is a 2003 University of Queensland graduate and began work at Roma Veterinary Clinic in early 2004. After a short sabbatical to locum in the UK from 2006-2008, he returned and bought into the practice in 2010. Will enjoys all facets of mixed animal practice but focus on extensive beef production including pregnancy testing, bull testing, speying and consultancy. In his spare time, Will & his wife and kids run a cattle breeding and backgrounding property south of Roma.
Dr Stephen Rayner
Dr Lance Wilson

He commenced a residency training program in 2010 and in 2015 attained Fellowship of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists in small animal surgery. Lance was head of the small animal surgery department at UQ until leaving in January 2017 to help create ARH Brisbane as a founding partner. Lance remains passionate about all aspects of surgery, however has a special interest in neurosurgery, complex fracture repair and limb deformity correction. Lance is kept busy and grounded by his beautiful wife Kirsten, three gorgeous children, a pack of dogs and a few tame cattle. In his little spare time, Lance enjoys the outdoors, spending time with his family and hobbling around the football field.
