For multiple reasons, primarily staff changes, we need to make further changes to our hours of operation.

Morwell - to improve consistency and reduce the instances of sudden closure of this clinic without warning if veterinary staff are unwell, we are going to close it on Wednesday each week. We will prioritise keeping it open on the other weekdays.

Traralgon - we will no longer offer consultations on Sundays. We will remain available between 9 -5 on Saturdays. We recommend any clients with urgent problems over the weekend to contact our colleagues at Gippsland Pet Emergency on 03 5623 4421 - who now offer full 24 hour emergency service through the weekend.
Otherwise our Traralgon clinic hours remain unchanged.

Gippsland Pet Emergency, located in Warragul, provides after-hours veterinary care for pets on weekends and public holidays. With skilled vets, nurses, and purpose-built facilities, we’re here to deliver expert, compassionate care when it matters most.

Happy New Year from everyone at Latrobe Vet Group! 🐶🐇🐱
As we step into the New Year, remember to keep your pets safe during the celebrations tonight. Fireworks and loud noises can be stressful, so make sure your pets are well secured and have a quiet, safe place to retreat. Don’t forget to provide plenty of fresh, clean water to keep them comfortable.
Wishing you and your furry loved ones a happy and safe New Year! 🥳

Our phones are playing up again - if you have an urgent situation, please go to our traralgon clinic. If the situation is not urgent, please try again later. We will return all messages etc as promptly as possible, but this is outside our control.

The end of an era - today we marked the impending retirement of a great veterinarian. Dr Kay Mitchell has been an important part of our practice for over 21 years. We are very sorry to lose her, but know how much she will enjoy her well earned change of pace. Very best wishes Dr Mitch!!

The People's Choice awards presentation night 2024 was a brilliant event - wonderful organisation by Latrobe City Business Chamber. Great to see the LCBC gaining momentum and to see the PC awards happening again. We were so honoured to win an award, and participate in such an excellent event, with representatives from businesses all over Latrobe City.

A friendly reminder as we fast approach Christmas! We are often quite busy during this time, with routine consults sometimes booked 2-3 weeks in advance. If your pet will be staying at a cattery or kennel, make sure they’re up to date with vaccinations and give us a call now to book an appointment! 😄📞🎄
