In memoriam : in memory of Dr Sandy Waddingham 05/08/1959 - 16/12/2022

Abstract

One of the most beloved veterinarians in Hermanus, Dr Sandy Waddingham died on 16 December 2023 after a long and brave battle with cancer. Sandy was born in 1958, the youngest of 5 children. After qualifying as veterinarian she went to work in Grahamstown, where she found a very caring community. Once the year was up, she went into practice in East London and was also the Animal Welfare vet. There she received an offer to work in England. She had the opportunity to work with horses for the first time and surprisingly enjoyed it. When the opportunity arose to work in Port Elizabeth in a mixed practice, she jumped at it.
