About us
Our group of three small animal general practice clinics across South-East Queensland is defined by a vibrant, supportive, and diverse culture. With locations in Nundah, New Farm, and Cleveland, our team of veterinarians, technicians, and nurses works collaboratively to provide high-quality, client-centered care. We believe in constant growth, actively investing in mentorship, training, and modern clinical equipment to ensure the best outcomes for our patients.

The care and professionalism we have received in treating our cat Gladys who had a lump removed by Suzanne and the support staff has been excellent and felt they all went above and beyond what you would expect. Everything was explained so we knew what to expect and follow up phone calls were greatly appreciated. Thank you to the whole team. – Jill A – Google Review
