Marcella Zhang

Marcella Zhang is a final year Doctor of Veterinary Medicine student at the University of Sydney, graduating with Honours Class I in Animal and Veterinary Bioscience along the way. Her passion for small animal medicine and animal welfare is matched by a genuine interest in helping pet owners understand their pets’ health, with particular focus on preventative healthcare and dentistry. Marcella’s clinical background spans nursing roles and placements across small animal hospitals, alongside research investigating antiviral therapy durations for Feline Infectious Peritonitis. As a Student Intern with Petsy Pet Insurance, she has written on conditions such as Myxomatous Mitral Valve Disease, helping pet owners navigate a heart diagnosis with clarity and confidence. Outside of veterinary medicine, Marcella loves exploring new food spots and unwinding with a good Netflix binge.
