Your pet’s first visit is all about making sure they get off to a healthy start! Our vet will perform a thorough nose-to-tail health check, including checking their heart, lungs, eyes, ears, teeth, skin and joints. We’ll also discuss vaccinations, parasite prevention, nutrition, behaviour, microchipping and desexing, while answering any questions you may have. It’s a great opportunity to establish a health baseline and start building a relationship with your veterinary team.
Before your pet has less than a week’s supply of medication remaining, please arrange your repeat prescription through our online Pet Portal or by contacting the clinic. Please allow a minimum of 24 hours for your medication to be prepared and ready for collection. Some medications may need to be ordered and can take approximately 3–4 business days to arrive, so please allow additional time where required.
Regular veterinary check-ups help us detect potential health problems early and keep your pet's preventative healthcare up to date. The appropriate frequency will depend on your pet's age, lifestyle, health and individual needs.

Yes. Dental care is an important part of your pet's overall health, and we provide veterinary dental services as part of our companion animal care.
Before surgery, please ensure your dog has been bathed at least 24 hours prior to their procedure to help us with surgical preparation. Your cat or dog will also need to be fasted from 7:00 pm the night before surgery, meaning no food after this time. Please contact the clinic to confirm your pet’s scheduled admission time, as this can vary depending on the procedure and our surgery schedule. This relates to small animal surgery only.
