Weve come here twice now with both our cats when we havent been able to get into our usual vet on such short notice. The care and compassion that weve been shown both times has been fantastic, I felt we were well informed and were made aware of all our options before anything needed to be done. Im an anxious cat mum and Ive not been made to feel like im over reacting. Yes its expensive and wait times can be prolonged but at the end of the day theyre helping multiple sick and injured animals all day everyday. If Im going to complain about anything its only because Im a bit spoilt at our usual vet but I think if there were a designated cat/small animal waiting area separated from the dogs that would make huge improvement on stress levels

So grateful to the team for their service late last night. Everyone was really helpful, caring and professional. Left with all the medication my poor pup needed, really clear instructions on how to care for him and even got a follow up call today. Not my usual vet, but will definitely use them again in an emergency, as Dr Peter said though I hope we dont need to see you again!

Pets commonly suffer skin and ear disease which can be extremely distressing to them and their owners.

By pursuing a logical and holistic approach to these conditions a long term management regime can be established suited to the needs of both pets and their owners.

A referral from the general practice Veterinarian, at their discretion or request of the client, is required to see the Veterinarians at our centre. Identifying underlying causes of skin disease and determining the most appropriate long term treatment options for a pet requires a team effort. You can also self-refer if your pet has a chronic skin or ear condition

By working together with you and your usual vet, we can identify the most appropriate long term treatment and management options for pets tailored to the pets and owners needs.

  • Dermatologic examinations and evaluation of problem skin cases
  • Diagnosis and management of allergic skin diseases
  • Diagnosis and management of autoimmune diseases investigation and treatment of recurrent chronic ear diseases
  • Intradermal allergy testing
  • Phovia light therapy, which encourages faster healing
