I previously worked here as a veterinarian and can honestly say this is THE best, most compassionate and high-quality vet hospital in the ACT region (if not, Australia!). Dr Helen Purdam and Dr Lesa Potten who own the clinic are truly amazing vets; they are warm and friendly, and have extensive experience in surgery and medicine, and moreover keep up with Continuing Education on a regular basis, which means your pets are receiving the most up-to-date care. (Helen also has extra qualifications in Behavioural Medicine, so any pet with behaviour issues ranging from anxiety to aggression should without a doubt have a specific consult with her!). Dr Jim Riach has also been a veterinarian here for many years and is phenomenal in both his knowledge and practical skills - even capable of doing orthopedic procedures that most vets ordinarily can't perform due to complexity. All the vets are extremely humble despite their expertise, and I wondered whether I should even write this review since they are already sufficiently busy with their loyal, long-term client base, but I want pet-owners to be aware of this genuinely brilliant hospital that exists! The nurses are also fantastic, and head nurse Ella is super experienced in all areas, especially since she has also worked in specialist emergency clinics. I miss working here with this wonderful team of people! Read Less
