Why Hunters Hill owners come to Lane Cove

Plenty of what we see from Hunters Hill is everyday care, and we are glad to be the vet for that: vaccinations, dentistry, desexing and the worries that do not have a name yet. Where the drive from Hunters Hill really earns its keep is the moment a question turns serious, because CT imaging, orthopaedic surgery, disc disease work-up and surgery, chemotherapy, laser therapy and behaviour consultations are all done in this building, and you can book any of it without a referral.

That shapes the advice as much as the treatment. Our vets work alongside the surgeons and the behaviour vet every week, so when we suggest a scan or an operation it is a judgement formed next to the people who would carry it out, and just as often our honest answer is that it would change nothing for your pet, which we will tell you plainly and kindly.

Walking the dog around Hunters Hill

For a walk near Hunters Hill, two that people use are Saint Malo Reserve and Fig Tree Park. Others within reach: Murray-Prior Reserve, Timbrell Reserve, Harry Shelley Memorial Playground, Heydon Park.

Grass seeds are the local menace. They work into a paw or an ear over a few days, so a hand run through the coat after a walk is worth the minute, and if a paw is being licked or an ear shaken we are always happy to take a look.

What Hunters Hill clients say

Matt had been wonderful with all our greyhounds who have come in to care. All the other vets at this clinic too are so patient, especially with greyhounds who deserve a kinder, softer approach. Rommy’s owners always talked very highly of this clinic and we are thrilled to have them as one of our vets.
