There are some cases where your pet might develop an unusual illness or injury, in this case there may be a need for a specialised veterinarian, who has the correct expertise and equipment to properly diagnose and treat the problem.

Australian registered veterinary specialists undergo a rigorous training and examination process to obtain their qualifications, and like human specialists are considered to be the epitome of knowledge in their field. We work closely alongside the specialists and together can offer optimum care for pets that require this service.

Specialists are independent veterinarians and set their own fees. It's a good idea to ask them about costs when you call to make an appointment.

Our sense of responsibility doesn't end just because you've taken your pet to a specialist. If you find yourself faced with difficult decisions regarding the recommended treatment, please don't hesitate to make an appointment to have a chat about the plan. We'll be pleased to help you evaluate all of your options.

We’re happy to discuss and organise a specialist referral if required by your pet.
