Services

Absolutely, we provide comprehensive care for your pet at every life stage. That means everything from initial puppy and kitten health checks and vaccinations, through routine adult wellness visits and dental care, to attentive senior check-ups. Our team guides you through each milestone, such as the right time for speying and other preventative health steps, to keep your pet happy and healthy, and when the time comes, we’re here with compassionate end-of-life care and support. As a locally owned, independent vet clinic near Glendale, we serve pet families across the Newcastle area and pride ourselves on being there for your pet’s whole journey.

Yes, we highly recommend desexing (spaying/neutering) for most pets, and our clinic provides this surgery on-site. Typically, pets are desexed when they’re a few months old – often around five to six months – but our vets will advise you on the best timing based on your pet’s breed and health. Our experienced surgical team performs desexing procedures with great care, using safe anesthesia and monitoring to ensure your pet’s comfort. Desexing not only prevents unwanted litters but can also lead to a healthier, calmer pet by reducing the risk of certain diseases and undesirable behaviors.

Certainly, we offer comprehensive pet dental care – including dental check-ups, professional teeth cleaning, and treatment for any dental issues. Just like in humans, good dental care is very important for pets: keeping your pet’s teeth and gums healthy can prevent pain, infections, and other health problems. During regular check-ups, our vets will examine your pet’s mouth and let you know if a professional dental cleaning is needed. Our Edgeworth vet clinic has advanced dental equipment (like digital dental X-rays) to safely clean and treat your pet’s teeth, helping keep their breath fresh and their overall health on track.

Definitely. Our veterinary hospital is fully equipped to diagnose and treat your pet if they get sick or hurt. We have a modern in-house lab for blood tests and a digital X-ray suite, so we can quickly find out what’s wrong and begin treatment right away. If surgery is needed, we provide a full range of procedures on-site at our Edgeworth vet clinic, from routine lump removals and desexing to complex orthopedic surgeries. Your pet will be in experienced hands, with our team closely monitoring them and keeping them comfortable through any procedure.

Yes! Our vets have a special interest and experience in treating exotic pets, including birds, reptiles (such as snakes and lizards), rabbits, guinea pigs, and rodents. We understand these pets have unique needs, so we offer tailored advice on their diet, habitat, and medical care to help them thrive. Our clinic even has specialized equipment to accommodate smaller or more unusual pets and help them feel secure during visits. We’re proud to provide exotic pet care to Newcastle-area pet owners, since not every vet is equipped to care for these species.

We know how heartbreaking it is to say goodbye to a beloved companion, and we’re here to support you with compassion and care. Our vets will gently guide you through end-of-life decisions and can provide humane pet euthanasia services when needed, either at our clinic or in the comfort of your home (available in the Newcastle area). We also partner with a local pet crematorium to help you arrange respectful aftercare when you’re ready. Throughout the process, you can count on our team to be there for you every step of the way, offering empathy, support, and gentle care as you face this difficult time.

While it’s not essential, bathing your dog the day before their procedure can be really helpful, as long as they don’t have any open wounds or skin conditions that make bathing unsuitable. A clean coat can reduce the time needed for surgical preparation, which means a shorter anaesthetic. And shorter anaesthetic times are always better for your dog’s safety and recovery. If you can do it, it’s a small step that can make a positive difference.
