Northfield Veterinary Clinic, Greater Northern Adelaide, SA
Northfield Veterinary Clinic is a privately owned small animal practice that has proudly served our community since 1971. While we’re conveniently located close to the city, we pride ourselves on delivering the personalised, compassionate care you'd expect from a country clinic. After more than 50 years in our original building, we renovated and moved into our beautiful brand-new purpose-built clinic just last year!
A little about us:
- We pride ourselves on our personalised service, our down-to-earth team and the strong relationships we build with our clients and their pets.
- We are a team that values and respects each other, upholds high standards, and supports one another to ensure smooth operations.
- We encourage and support continuing education for all staff. Client education is also important to us to empower our clients to make informed decisions.
- Our roster is focused around achieving a work-life balance for all staff. We want you to have a life outside of the vet world!
- Our vets and nurses work collaboratively, embracing a team-based approach to patient care.
- Our new building offers separate cat and dog wards, a private euthanasia suite, large quiet staff room, spacious consult rooms, a designated surgery room with positive pressure airflow and all the regular, modern equipment expected to meet today's high standards of veterinary care.
