🚨CHANGES TO OUR AFTERHOURS SERVICE🚨

In order to enable us to sustain servicing the community 24/7, we have decided to acquire the assistance of a triaging service to answer our calls out of hours.
Please note we continue to value our shared on call agreement with Furlife Horsham to ensure there will always be an available vet in times of emergency. The process of calling after hours will also not change, in that you will still need to call our regular clinic number on 5381 1996 and you will be diverted to speak to the triage service.
Those of you who have our after hours number saved will no longer be able to get through to us if you direct dial that phone.

We thank you in advance for adapting to this new change, as we learn to adapt to it as well. However, rest assured we are still committed to providing emergency afterhours care to you and your pets at all times.

Please note our opening hours over the upcoming holiday period πŸŽ„If you require special orders for food or a medication t...

Here are our top 12 tips for keeping your pets safe this Christmas! πŸŽ„πŸŽ…πŸ½

It can be a busy time for a lot of us but these are some important things to keep in mind so that our dogs and cats remain safe, calm, and be able to enjoy the hectic holiday period with you as well.

Your Family Vet will be closed on Public Holidays, but if you have an emergency out of business hours, as always call the clinic on 5381 1996 and have a pen ready to write down the emergency number.

Yesterday we sadly said farewell to Dr Vivian who is heading back overseas for a while.
We were lucky enough to have had Viv since she was a new grad early 2023 and have seen her grow into the vet she is today. We wish her well and hope to see her again one day πŸ’•πŸ‘‹πŸ½

Recently we have seen an increase in uninjured baby birds brought in to the clinic. We appreciate members of the public trying to help, however we ask that these birds are left alone unless injured or in immediate danger from predators such as dogs or cats.
Please read the image below to see how they can be helped without removing them from the area. If you are unsure whether a baby bird needs your help, please call us for advice before touching it or getting too close.
Also a reminder that it is against the law to attempt to keep these babies without the relevant license, and raising them without the correct education can unfortunately do more harm than good. Your Family Vet has licensed wildlife carers that these birds can go to following a veterinary assessment so they can be properly supported until they are able to be released back into the wild πŸ₯
