💚💜 Wonderful News Update on Dr Ang 💜💚

We are so happy to share with our Maraboon Vet Family that Dr Ang’s surgery was a huge success! The surgery was able to remove all the cancer, and her specialist team has confirmed that no follow-up chemotherapy or radiation is required.

We want to extend our deepest thanks to everyone for your support, kind words, and well wishes during this time—it has truly meant the world to Dr Ang and our whole team.

While her recovery is going really well, we are making sure she still takes the time she needs to rest and heal. For her sanity, she’s allowed back into the building in short bursts, but she will not be seeing patients or taking calls for the next few weeks.

Our incredible Maraboon Vet team continues to look after your animals with the same care and dedication as always. Thank you again for your love and support—it has carried us all through this journey. 💕

It is with strength and love that we need to let all of our Maraboon Vet Family know that Dr Ang will be taking a break to undergo important medical treatment. Dr Ang has recently been diagnosed with a serious but treatable, benign form of ovarian cancer. Her prognosis is incredibly promising with a team of the best medical experts leading her surgery and treatment.

We have a superstar team already taking the lead and supporting her, so Maraboon Vet and Pet Resort will continue to operate as normal. Rest assured that the animals of the Central Highlands will remain in safe, capable hands.

We do kindly ask that you respect Dr Ang's privacy during this time and send all your veterinary enquiries directly to the clinic for the foreseeable future.

Dr Ang endeavours to be back on board in 4-6 weeks and we will be sure to keep everyone informed on how her recovery goes.

We know that the strength of our community will be rallying around Dr Ang and we couldn't be more thankful for everyone's support.
