Do not recommend for people on low income/disability or who have trouble with verbal skills around people. I brought my cat in to be seen for some stiffness and soreness and was immediately put off by the vet's attitude. I wanted to bring him in sooner but they will not see any pets whos bill cannot be paid the same day or who dont go through vetpay. When they first told me to apply for vetpay yesterday I looked them up and was shocked that they would refer people on a low income already to a loan service that charges 18.41% interest, plus $49 per plus $2.50 per repayment which ends up costing nearly double the original invoice once you pay all the fees and interest. I might not have the best verbal skills in person but I am not an idiot and do not like being spoken to like an idiot. The same vet (tall woman) who treated my cats absyss with an injection last year which ultimately turned out to do nothing and he ended up needing surgery days later. No apology no nothing. Just extra days of suffering for my cat and $110 in the bin. This time she refused to give him antibiotics altogether and wouldnt put anything i writing for me to take with me. Whenever I asked a question I just got a rude response like "are you a vet?" or "whenever I get to it". she handled my cat pretty roughly when taking his temperature to the point where he screeched. I don't understand why they cant just be polite to people regardless of their income or what questions they might have. Its like a doctor having a go at you for asking questions about a process that makes you nervouise/scared. If you are on the spectrum like me, have bad anxiety or anything else that makes it hard to advocate for yourself especially in difficult situations I really recommend bringing an advocate with you if you use these guys at all. I keep giving them the benefit of the doubt but this is it. I cant trust someone with a vulnerable animal that cant speak for themsleves who cant even stay professional and not get nasty during a 5 minute consult. Plus I dont understand why they refuse to let people organise paymet plans or pay the invoice later in the week...especially someone who has a history of always paying when they say theyll pay. The receptionist yesterday told me its because some people need to be chased up for money. I don't see why they have to punish everyone else instead of organising centrepay or even recommending NILS to people on a low income. Read Less

Worst vet i have ever had contact with, call regarding problems with my 4 week old chicken get told to come in and get a cream, after trying to talk to the rude lady at the counter about administering the cream that turns out i dont even need. Then calling back up and speaking to some bloke the wants to tell me if i dont bring the chicken in withing the 10 minutes befor they close it will die. Then has a go at me and hangs up. Poor effort!! You need to close your store if you have no interest in caring for animals. Will be the last time i use you guys for a sick animal. Read Less

I took my Labrador puppy to get desexed and they did a fantastic job. And wasn't overly expensive like some vets.

Never goin back there. Ashley u need to learn to do ur job better. My dog goes in to get a needle n nails clipped n a rash checked out. U hand her bk dripping in blood cause u cut her paw so angry. If she is a hard puppy to hlod down to cut her nails maybe u should have said u wont do it rather than just cut where u think u can get too. All of her nails look very short n uneven and she is walkin funny lickin at her paws. So angey at u. Learn to do ur job better Read Less
