Led by Specialist Expertise

Veterinary Reproduction Consultancy was founded in 2018 by Dr Jasmin Hyatt, a Registered Specialist in Animal Reproduction (Theriogenology). Following extensive specialist training in Australia, New Zealand and the United States, Dr Jasmin established the practice to provide breeders and veterinarians with access to the highest level of reproductive expertise available.

Today, Veterinary Reproduction Consultancy is recognised as one of Australia’s leading specialist reproduction practices, welcoming clients from across New South Wales and beyond while continuing to support veterinarians through collaborative referral services and ongoing education.

Dr Jasmin Hyatt is NSW/ACT’s only small animal Registered Specialist in Veterinary Reproduction. She graduated from the University of Sydney with a Bachelor of Veterinary Science (First Class Honours) in 2012, and after a few years in mixed animal practice across New South Wales and New Zealand, turned her focus to theriogenology — the science of animal reproduction.

Jasmin went on to complete a comparative theriogenology residency (spanning canine, feline, equine and bovine reproduction) through the American College of Theriogenologists at Matamata Veterinary Services in New Zealand, mentored by leading theriogenologists from New Zealand, Europe and the United States. During her residency she spent two seasons working with the theriogenology departments at Louisiana State University and North Carolina State University veterinary schools in the USA, experiencing the highest level of theriogenology services.

During this time Liz was heavily involved teaching reproduction skills and knowledge to Veterinary, Animal and Equine Science students at the University.
