The care and compassion at this vet clinic is outstanding. Our dog needed emergency surgery when his intestines twisted in on themselves. First of all - I appreciated them acting so quickly, which I truly believe saved our dog. Secondly - they also knew their facilities limitations. The surgery ended up being a lot more extensive, and needed a specialist in Melbourne. Once again they acted quickly contacting the centre for us, and keeping us updated along the way so we could get him there as quickly as possible. They genuinely care about the well-being of every animal/owner that walks in. I am very proud to have these guys as our local vet! Read Less

Im a registered cat breeder and i have taken my cats to many vet across Geelong and Melbourne over the last 10years including "specialists vets", Lara Pet Hospital is the ONLY vet that cares more about the animal then money. I love the kind and loving staff who always remembers your name and animals names. I think the clinic is hygienic and clean. Im so happy I've finally found a vet i can trust. I encourage averyone to take thier animals there and see for themselves how brilliant they really are. Thankyou Julia and Lisa i dont trust anyone eles to look after my animals. P.s. lara pet hospital do look after wildlife, serendip sanctuary also choose lara pet hospital to treat thier precious wildlife. From jess and (hudson) Read Less

Can not possibly speak highly enough of these guys! Professional, caring and attentive. Having two whippets that regularly stroodle way too hard and manage hurt themselves in a variety of unusual ways, they have always given us fantastic advice and service. Even at the drop of a hat when we need it most and have cared for our dogs like they were their own. Thankyou for being amazing and loving what you do! Read Less

Do not take injured wildlife here. I found a baby magpie that was abandoned from parents and I was feeding it every two hours and rang the serendip sanctuary several times and could not get through, so I rang the vet and she said to bring him in and the leopold wildlife rescue will pick him up and rehabilitate him until he is better. I rang three hours later to see how he was going and they euthanized him because he was malnourished and weak. What do they think I was taking him in for? To be fed and looked after as I was at work and couldn't look after him until that night. Could they not have called me first to see if I can take over again? I was willing to feed him every two hours and if I had know they were just going to put him to sleep, because they didn't have time for him, I would have taken him into my workplace. Could not believe the heartlessness of these people. Never again will anyone of my animals nor wildlife be put in the hands of these people. The response below from vet. Here's the story- My dog got kennel cough from this clinic after going in for a check up on her eyes. Seven days later, she started coughing. I had to ring the vet to enquire as I was away and my mum rang me with the news of my dogs cough. The vet said it would go away on its own. I took her in 1week week later as her cough was still there. That's why she was in that many days after her original appointment, it didn't start two weeks later and they were well aware of that. And they were kind enough to charge me for the appointment. Read Less
