About Dr Brooke Schampers
Supporting Vets in Emergency and Critical Care – and Beyond
I’m a Melbourne-based small animal emergency vet with over 8 years of experience in ECC (Emergency and Critical Care), holding membership qualifications with the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Scientists (MANZCVS). My career has taken me through the highs and lows of fast-paced hospital life — where one moment is incredible and the next can be inexplicably tragic. It’s not for the faint or cold-hearted… which is exactly what makes it so meaningful.
Through my Instagram page @doctor_brooke, I aim to be more than just a clinical voice. I want to become an advocate for positivity, to inspire, and to educate. I’ve created practical resources, ebooks, templates, and tools designed to help early career vets and new graduates find clarity, confidence, and calm in the chaos of veterinary life.
My work extends into speaking and presenting at veterinary conferences across Australia and internationally, with topics ranging from shock and trauma to mental wellbeing in vet med. I’ve been proud to collaborate on brand partnerships with FIGS Scrubs, Royal Canin, Boehringer Ingelheim, and NexGard SPECTRA® to raise awareness and deliver meaningful veterinary education.
Through this platform and the projects to come, I hope I can make a difference in the lives of veterinary students and veterinarians around the world — helping you build a sustainable, fulfilling, and supported career in this incredibly tough, yet deeply rewarding profession.
