Consultations

In one location all your pets are welcome. We offer consultations by appointment at the hospital and have dedicated consulting rooms specific to your pet's needs. Comfort for you and your pet is so important to us and that is why our dedicated spaces have been designed in a way to minimise some of the stresses that you worry about when you go to the vet.

We have landscape art to give a sense of home, we have towels, mats and blankets in our rooms for your pets' comfort. All the rooms have natural pheromones scented around the hospital.

We supply a variety of treats to welcome your pet*. 

House calls

Can't get transport to the vets?

Find it too stressful for you or your pet to travel?

Have more than one pet to be looked at?

Why not take advantage of our House Call service, where we can come to you in the comfort of your own home. We schedule visits for all animals so not just our large sheep, goats and horses but we understand that sometimes it is easier for your dogs, cats and everything in between as well. This is also a service that is taken up during those sensitive times when you want to be at home and not stress your pet out too.

You can also take advantage of reduced travel cost by putting your name down on our house call runs where we visit multiple households on the one day.

While we take care of most needs for your pet on house calls, some procedures are limited to what we have in our work vehicles and in some cases, it will be advised that a hospital visit is more suitable.

Our regular house Call runs are posted on our Facebook page and you can make an appointment for a house call by calling the hospital and also gain more information if you have any questions.

Normal practice visits can be made through our booking button.

The ideal time for dogs to learn and build their social skills is while they are young. Puppy school is a valuable tool to help show your puppy the world in a safe location, here inside Somersby Animal Hospital. They get to meet exciting new friends. This will give them the confidence when you just want to take them out for a walk on the beach, have visitors around for dinner, go on to become world champion agility pups and also those times they come and say hello to their friendly veterinary team that keeps them healthy.

We have puppy classes set up here at the Somersby Animal Hospital to build a happy bond with your visits to the vets all with our lovely nurse Brooke.

Titre Testing

Your annual check of your pet is so important and vaccinations are designed to protect your pet from deadly diseases. We understand that giving a dose of another vaccination may not be necessary at the time and a concern of yours to do so.

We have in house laboratory testing that checks your pet's immune system to some of these deadly diseases. This determines if your pet has sufficient resistance to postpone the need for a vaccination for another year.

Wildlife Care

We are passionate about our native Australian wildlife. 

We will go above and beyond to take care of our unique fauna. In Australia we are so lucky to have such amazing species and here at Somersby Animal Hospital we want to make sure they are well looked after.

If you find any injured wildlife, we are happy for you to contact us and we can organise treatment and care for them. 

We are fortunate to have a wonderful relationship with some fabulous carers of wildlife that belong to some fantastic charity groups.

Nutrition

Do you know if the food your pet is eating is totally balanced? Is it nutritionally correct? Are you feeding the right amount?

Food is one of the pleasures in life that can also play an important role in our pet's health. Our team is trained in nutrition to assist with your pet's dietary needs at every stage of your pet’s life. We understand the as they grow their needs change.

A correct diet can complement/alleviate medical conditions such as diabetes, kidney disease, arthritis and more.

Dentistry

Dental health is a daily thing for us, right?

We brush/ floss/ rinse our teeth multiple times a day. So, what about our pets? 

Smelly breath is normal?

Dental disease can be fixed and early signs can be reversed. It is amazing how much happier a pet can be with a healthy mouth. A tooth ache is unbearable for us and it is the same for them. The mouth is a gateway to the rest of our body and build up on teeth known as tartar harbours bacteria that can find its way into the bloodstream, affecting organs such as the heart, kidneys and even the brain.

We have lots of dental solutions you can fit into your lifestyle and with the best interest of your pet to minimise dental disease. 

Like us, our pet's will benefit from professionally cleaned teeth. This will help prevent serious dental disease which can have implications on the overall health of your pet.

Our professional cleaning is done with our ultrasonic cleaner and polisher. At Somersby Animal Hospital we use dental radiography to make sure we don't miss any underlying dental problems. Our extra care and continued support will keep a smile on your pet's face!
