Dr Emma Agardi

Emma is one of our friendly vets here at Southside, joining the team in 2025 as a new graduate after completing her veterinary degree at the University of Adelaide. Emma was drawn to veterinary medicine by her passion for supporting both animals and the people who love them.

What Emma enjoys most about her role is building strong, positive relationships with clients and their fur babies – alongside being part of a genuinely supportive team. She has a special interest in animal behaviour, having worked closely with a positive reinforcement trainer during university and even helping train a guide dog. More recently, she’s developed a growing passion for musculoskeletal health and rehabilitation.

At home, Emma lives with her partner John, and while there are no pets just yet, this is very much a “watch this space.”

Often described as an energiser bunny or a Labrador, Emma personally identifies more as an otter – fun-loving and known for making cool noises. Outside the clinic, you’ll find her cooking up something delicious, unwinding with a great dinner and a face mask on the couch, or powering through a long shift with a soy cappuccino and her favourite snack: Sour Geckos.

Fun facts? Emma’s favourite animal is the Aardvark.
