The short version

8.6 km from Melrose Park, about 15 minutes to drive, largely on Wicks Road. We are open seven days, so the trip fits around work and school, and you can book online or phone 02 9888 1833.

What Melrose Park families find worth the drive

We know Melrose Park is a real drive, so here is what makes it worthwhile. Vaccinations, dentistry, desexing and orthopaedic surgery including cruciate repair all happen here, and X-ray, ultrasound and the theatre are on the premises, so a visit that starts as a question can usually continue as an answer, in one building and one trip.

The second reason is the group behind us. The services listed further down are done at one of our sister sites and arranged by your vet here, which means a family in Melrose Park registers once and has all of it within reach, with a vet who can say honestly whether any of it is needed because they work alongside the people who do it.

Carried out at Macquarie

All of this happens in our own building, by the team you meet in the consult room, and we are happy to talk any of it through before you book.

And what our group adds

These are done at one of our sister sites rather than in this building. Your vet here arranges it, stays part of the conversation, and sees your pet again afterwards.

Where Melrose Park dogs get their exercise

Two that Melrose Park owners tend to walk are Jennifer Park and Sindel Reserve. Also close by: Memorial Park Dog Off-Leash Trial, Hughes Avenue Park, George Kendall Park Dog Off-Leash Area, Meadowbank Park.

Memorial Park Dog Off-Leash Trial carries an off-lead tag in the mapping data. Council hours shift about, so it pays to confirm with yours before unclipping.

Grass seeds are worth knowing about through spring and summer. They travel into a paw pad or down an ear canal and cause far more trouble left for a week than caught on the night, so a paw being licked or an ear being shaken is a good reason to let us have a look.

In their words

Last minute urgent appointment for our cat. Lovely vet and made time for us to return with some urine to be tested a hour later and have a quick second consultation. We have not really needed a vet much other than annual vaccinations but I will absolutely use this practice from now on

What Melrose Park clients ask before they come

How far is the hospital from Melrose Park?

8.6 km, which is about 15 minutes by car if you take Wicks Road, and we are open seven days so the drive can fit around the rest of your week. Parking is on Jarvis Circuit or underneath Coles, from Halifax Street.

Are you open at the weekend?

Yes, we are open seven days, including both Saturday and Sunday. You can book online, or call us on 02 9888 1833 and we will find a time that works for your family.

What if my pet needs a CT scan or a behaviour consultation?

Both are done at one of our sister sites, within our own group. We assess your pet here first, arrange it with our colleagues, and see your pet again afterwards, so you keep the same vet throughout.

My pet needs seeing today. What do I do?

A call to 02 9888 1833 is the first step, so that we can be ready for you when you arrive, because we see urgent cases during our opening hours. After we close, the after-hours emergency service we work with is listed in the footer of this page.
