The best vets we’ve been to by a long shot. The people there seem to truly love animals and their job. The vets care a lot about the animals; while my cat was sick and staying there they gave me constant updates and spent a lot of time making sure he was comfortable and I was getting all the relevant information. Another one of our cats is quite old and has a few chronic conditions, and these vets have always treated him with care when he’s been in and he doesn’t mind going to the vet at all! They’ve managed his conditions very well and he’s the healthiest he’s been in a long time after seeing these vets.
Prices are also very reasonable; some vets charge twice as much for half the quality service. Some vets will try and drag unnecessary charges out of you and these vets will never do that. They understand that having a sick pet is stressful and don’t add the financial stress on top of that.
But really, what’s best about the vet is how much everyone loves their job and cares about the animals. I just love walking in to see the nurses happy and excitedly talking about how cute my cats are or how good they are. There’s this one lady in particular (I feel bad not asking for her name! She’s older than the other nurses with short reddish-brown hair) who is an absolute ray of sunshine and when I give my cat to her I feel like she’s going to take good care of him just because she seems so happy to see him.
Best vet we’ve ever been to. Couldn’t recommend them more. Read Less

All the vets are very professional and lovely people, as are the rest of the staff. Have been taking our pets here for 20 years, never had anything but fantastic service. Lately been seen by Rachel and Hugh, highly recommend them both. Parking can be a bit of a pain. Protip, if you're taking your cat and the waiting area is full of dogs ask the receptionist if you can put your cat behind the reception area. Read Less

When one of my dogs was poorly they still enquires about my old boys health. They helped Mr Dudley when others had no clue, it was risky and the outcome could have been the end of him.
On another note they all volunteer for a dog shelter on their own time.

I am never rescuing wildlife again and that says a lot for a Zoologist. I had a native bird clawing it's way out of a towel when I entered the shop and asked for a box. The assistant was ice cold and clearly not interested. She let me know that in no uncertain terms that they were extremely busy and made me feel I was a major inconvenience. She even told me that Wildlife Victoria only showed up 50% of the time. If you are going to work at a Vet Practice...shouldn't you care about all creatures great and small...especially our special native ones? I'm sure she just walked out the back and euthanised it.....after all...it wasn't a pampered paying customer. Read Less

Took my dog to Malvern Vet with "swimmers ear" he's had it before in Canada so I'm familiar with the treatment. It was a $160 bill at the Malvern clinic which included $27 for an inner ear cleaner they sell online for $13.50. Not the end of the world pet goods have a high markup. Anyways similar to the time before in Canada I ended up needing more antibiotics to clear the infection for good and they wanted another $160 so I told them I thought that was unreasonable and took the gaffer to this Glen Huntley Vet upon a friend's referral. My final bill was $87 so about half the cost of the Malvern clinic. They gave me a bigger bottle of antibiotics and they're including a free consult afterwards to make sure the infection is all cleared up which is what the Malvern vet should've included in the first place. If I went to Malvern again I would've spent a total of $320 on something that Glen Huntley vet offers for $87 so they're not even in the same ballpark as far is pricing is concerned. What a cash cow. Don't get taken advantage of because you love your pet. Be smart you have options. Go to Glen Huntley Vet they're thorough and affordable. Hate to be negative but profiting that much on people's heartstrings is shameful. Thanks for the treatment Kat you guys are great. Read Less
