Smart, bubbly, and passionate, Dr. Nicole Arcy is the youngest addition to the Pol Veterinary Services team and one of the most outstanding.
From earning a double post-graduate degree in Veterinary Medicine and Public Health to treating large and small animals with major and minor ailments and appearing on national television, the 29-year-old has achieved a lot for her age.
Being on National Geographic’s reality television series was one of Dr. Arcy’s dreams. However, she has been missing in action, and we haven’t seen her in some episodes. So, naturally, fans are wondering where is Dr. Nicole Arcy now.

Who Is The New Doctor, Nicole Arcy, On The Incredible Dr. Pol?
The Pol Veterinary Service is home to a tight-knit team of staff members who have worked there for years under the supervision of Dr. Jan Harm Pol and his wife, Diane Pol. The staff has virtually become family, making the vet center so welcoming and outstanding in the community.
But, when Dr. Emily left, apparently to pursue further studies, Dr. Pol knew he had to find someone to fill in the gap.
According to Nicole Arcy, Dr. Pol hired her on the spot, and she became the new addition to the team in June 2018.
So, just who is Dr. Nicole Arcy? What is her background, and what made her get her dream job with the renowned Pol Veterinary Service?
Dr. Arcy is an animal health doctor who specializes in treating exotic animals. She earned her BA in Zoology from Michigan State University and a Post Graduate degree in Public Health and the University of Missouri.
Nicole moved to Weidman, Michigan, searching for work in her field of specialization.
“I loved watching Dr. Pol on television long before vet school. When the time came to look for a job, I was keen on hospitals that work with small and large animals, but I was particularly interested in small mammals and exotic animals,” she said.
Since joining the clinic, the Michigan-based TV star has done much of what she had always dreamed of, including examining and performing surgery on dogs, cats, reptiles, birds, and injured animals.
Why Did Dr. Nicole Leave Dr. Pol Show?
Fans were first introduced to Dr. Nicole on February 23rd, 2019, in season 14, during the episode titled, ‘Of Mice and Macaws’ on Nat Geo Wild.
When she started at the clinic, she was a staff vet still learning the ins and outs from the rest of the team. So far, she has appeared in more than 25 episodes on Nat Geo’s The Incredible Dr. Pol.
Fans in some circles have speculated that Nicole no longer works with Dr. Pol. The young vet has indeed been missing from our screens on a couple of episodes. But, her absence does not mean she has quit the television series or resigned from Pol Vet Services.
Delightfully, Dr. Nicole Arcy’s still part of the team and an important member of the reality TV series. We do not know the reason for the absence, but it could be just part of the show’s production, and they needed to film other people and the different things going on at the clinic.
