Extremely grateful for Dr Alan Mills for his after hours emergency care for my little boy Leo whilst we were on holiday. He had his eye come out of the socket and Alan was at the practice in no time. He was great to Leo and our family as we were distraught. He kept me updated on his progress and was able to discharge him in the morning with my boy doing ok. I’m so thankful for this and his great attitude.

LOVE THIS VET CLINIC AND ALL THE PEOPLE IN IT!
We were nervous about taking our British Bulldog to a new vet while on holidays, but after seeing all the great Google Reviews and giving this clinic a call we felt more comfortable. We saw Tina at the Victor Harbor Clinic who did a thorough examination and spent time with us explaining everything clearly and answering all our endless questions.
We decided because we were in such good hands we wanted to continue investigative tests on our dog with Tina and Rhys so that we could get the right help when we get back to Melbourne. We have been so thrilled with their service and thorough investigations. They have really cared about us and our precious dog. Big shout out to the nurse who did Colin's laser treatment, and Peta on the front desk for handling the entire claim process for us - you don't get that in the big city! Thanks again All, we wish you were in Victoria!
