About us
With Cannington Veterinary Hospital, you’ll not only have a rewarding veterinary career, but a healthy work-life balance to enjoy Western Australia’s laid-back charm in your downtime.
The hospital itself is constantly upgrading equipment to remain ahead of the curve when it comes to the diagnosis and treatment options for our patients including Digital X-Ray (incl. specialised Dental X-Ray Machine), Dental Unit, Ultrasound, Doppler Blood Pressure Monitoring, and an In-house laboratory.
I’ve been bringing my dogs to this veterinary clinic for nearly 10 years, and I just want to say a heartfelt thank you. The doctors and nurses here are incredibly dedicated, treating every pet with patience and care. The treatment costs and medication prices are fair, and the front desk staff are always warm and welcoming. I couldn’t be more satisfied with this clinic. Highly recommend! – Jin C – Google Review
