Dr. Nickey Brown

Since graduating from the Ontario Veterinary College in 1999, Dr. Nickey Brown has been practicing veterinary medicine in the City of Guelph. In 2001 she became a partner at Campus Estates Animal Hospital. Her professional interests include medicine, emergency care, exotics, and animal behavior. She enjoys getting to know each of her patients, and their human counterparts personally – it’s one of her favourite parts of her job.

When not busy at the clinic, Nickey can be found with her husband Tim, and children Emily, Liam and Matthew the Tornado! She enjoys spending time with her family, hiking, and scrapbooking. Their animal family members include two dogs, Lincoln and Koda, and two cats, Jessica and Cindy.

Koda is proud to be a blood donor for some of the pets that come into the clinic, and Jessica is a treasured rescue pet from Nickey’s vet school days.

”I am committed to providing the excellent quality of veterinary medicine that has been at this clinic for the past 19 years. I am grateful to be able to care for the pets that come through our doors,” she says.

Dr. Marco Mazzocco

Dr. Marco Mazzocco is a graduate of the Ontario Veterinary College (1999), and after working for just one year he went back to school to complete an internship in small animal medicine, surgery and critical care. With more than a decade of experience in emergency medicine, we are not only able to provide our clients with 24/7 emergency care, but Marco’s specialty has enabled us to extend that emergency care to the City of Guelph and surrounding areas. In 2008 Marco became a clinic partner. His areas of interest are disease prevention and surgery. During his off time he enjoys biking, skiing and wood working.
