    We offer an emergency after hours service for our clients. Please call 1300 654 622 where you will speak to an on call Veterinarian at our triage service VetChat. If your case requires emergency care, VetChat will alert our on call Veterinarian who will be ready on standby.

  • Current Veterinary professional shortage 

    You may be aware that the profession (like many others) is experiencing a widespread shortage of workers.

We ask for respect and understanding as we continue to do our work.
