We’re not your average clinic. Our purpose-built hospital in Perth’s southern suburbs was recently ranked in the top 10% of practices in WA by the Veterinary Surgeons Board. We’re modern, well-equipped, and committed to delivering outstanding care.

Each day brings a varied and interesting caseload—including orthopaedic surgeries, complex soft tissue procedures, and everything in between. You’ll work alongside a collaborative, supportive team that values your contribution and always has your back.

What’s in it for you?

💡 Who You Are

📍 Who We Are

We’re a proudly independent, locally owned practice located just 30 minutes south of Perth and close to the coast. Since opening in 2015, we’ve built a strong reputation for our high standards, great client relationships, and supportive team culture.

Our hospital features two surgical theatres, a dental suite, modern imaging and diagnostic equipment, and a brand-new expansion designed to improve workflow and enhance the experience for staff, clients, and patients alike. We perform a wide range of surgeries in-house and work closely with charities to provide desexing and veterinary services to animals in need.

No corporate red tape—just real care, a down-to-earth atmosphere, and a team that genuinely enjoys working together.
