Mejeanne joined the CAP team in 2023, after graduating in 2022 as one of the first BSc Veterinary Physiotherapists in South Africa. Mejeanne's true passion is continuous development and learning. She loves the more complicated cases and says the challenge not only fuels her passion but urges her to create value. She shows a keen interest in canine orthopaedic post surgical cases, conservative neurological cases, as well as canine and equine maintenance and sports conditioning. If you don't catch her flying across the tentpegging field with her horse, Ferdi or hiking with her Golden boy, Marley, you will most definitely find her at the nearest surf spot!
