Brief resume

Natasha Mitchell qualified as a vet from UCD Dublin in 1998. She worked in mixed practice in the UK initially and then spent three years working and travelling in Australia, where she developed a keen interest in ophthalmology and undertook an eye course. She returned to the UK in 2002 to study for a Royal College of Veterinary Surgeons Certificate in Veterinary Ophthalmology which she obtained in 2004. Since then, she has worked in referral ophthalmology and dedicates all of her time to eye cases.

She is studying towards a Royal College of Veterinary College Diploma in Veterinary Ophthalmology and therefore spends some of her time working in a dedicated veterinary eye hospital in Herefordshire in the UK - the Eye Veterinary Clinic. In May 2007 she started seeing referral eye cases in Limerick and joined Crescent Veterinary Clinic in Limerick in December 2008 to expand the range of ophthalmology services offered.
