HELLO
FRIENDS!
OPEN UNTIL 6:00PM WEEKDAYS
& 1:00PM SATURDAYS
We believe that your companion deserves the personalised care and attention that can only be provided by your family veterinarian.
We pride ourselves in being able to spend the time to listen and then develop an individualised treatment plan.
Being a small team, our goal is to follow your four-legged friends’ progress as if they were one of our own.
OUR
SERVICES
WELLNESS EXAMS
A wellness exam is a type of preventative care. Preventative healthcare focuses on maintaining wellness and stopping health problems before they occur. Instead of waiting until a health issue occurs.
MICROCHIPPING
A microchip is a permanent method of electronic identification.
The chip itself is very small – about the size of a grain of rice – and is implanted subcutaneously (just under the skin) between the shoulder blades at the back of your pet's neck.
Each chip has a unique number that is detected using a microchip scanner
VACCINATIONS
Vaccinations are required for all dogs and cats.
A vaccine administered to a healthy animal stimulates the immune system to mount an effective response to kill disease-causing microbes when the body is exposed to them.
Routine vaccinations are undertaken from when your pet is 6 to 8 weeks old.
Your pet will require boosters at regular intervals and the most suitable schedule will be discussed with you when you first bring him/her in.
SURGERY
We have a wide range of surgical facilities and equipment.
This enables us to perform sterile surgeries including soft tissue surgery and orthopaedic operations, as well as non-sterile surgeries such as bite wound treatments and abscess drainage.

Dr Jason Andrews: BSc (Hons) BVSc (Hons) MANCZS (Animal Reproduction)
​
I have been a companion animal veterinarian for 18 years, having spent my entire working career in country mixed and equine practice. My veterinary interests are wide and varied. However, I have a special interest in theriogenology (animal reproduction) particularly dogs and horses. Having recently completed specialist training at Charles Sturt University (Wagga Wagga) in comparative theriogenology becoming a member of the Australian and New Zealand College of Veterinary Surgeons (in Animal Reproduction).
​
I worked in Canberra, the Hunter Valley (Scone), an eventually owned a large mixed practice in the New England region of Northern NSW for a number of years but my wife and I always wanted to settle somewhere in the Adelaide Hills.
​
My personal interests include horses, and I am currently lucky enough to be competitively eventing a number of horses that I have bred using imported frozen semen. We also like to keep fit, eat good food and drink red wine, hopefully we have come to the right part of the country for that.
