Dr Amy always wanted to follow her father’s footsteps and be a vet. When she graduated from the University of Sydney with first class honours, her father was there in the formal procession.She worked in small animal practice after graduation, including for her her proud father Dr John Aspley Davis. The drive to become a specialist led her to take an internship at the University of Sydney. She completed a Graduate Certificate in Veterinary Clinical Sciences with a project on Feline Hyperthyroidism, and then joined the team at SASH, for her Small Animal Medicine Residency. She published papers on Pituitary Apoplexy, Canine Systemic Mycobacteriosis, and Feline Laryngeal Disease, and won awards from the Australian Small Animal Veterinary Association for Best Research Publication and Case Report. Amy spent 6 years in the UK working at a world leading veterinary referral hospital, as a medical consultant for veterinary clinical pathology and performing research and attending clinics at the Royal Veterinary College. She became a Fellow of the Australian New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists and is a registered Specialist in Small Animal Medicine. Returning to SASH - she is the medical director of the Pituitary Centre and Head of infection Prevention and Control. Amy enjoys the challenge of the complexity of internal medicine cases. She particularly enjoys endocrinology, pituitary disease, infectious disease and immune mediated disease. It’s the problem solving in internal medicine - especially the tough cases that really make her tick.
