THE ARK VET REVIEWS

Today we had to put our big boy to sleep. The staff and Dr Joel Cuthbert were amazing making our decision a little less painful. We would like to thank them for their kindness during a very painful time. We will miss Ranger terribly.

We've got many cats living with us (indoor only of course). "The Ark Animal Hospital" is the place to go! They are the most helpful and experienced vets/doctors you can imagine.

Absolutely the best vet clinic I have ever attended. Everyone cares and I cannot thank you all enough for continuing to show compassion and the best advice and support. Thank you all so much.

PARAP VETERINARY HOSPITAL REVIEWS

Incredible vet, I took my rabbit there multiple times for complicated dental and procedures (was actually referred to them by another vet due to their skills with rabbits). When she passed away they sent me a card of condolence and it was so sweet.... they really do care and it meant so much to me at the time.. thank you for helping me through.

Thank you for looking after my rat Gavin! And doing a thorough check, I couldn’t take him to this appt due to work, but to know he was in good hands and you were gentle is very reassuring!

Best pet care possible. The team are just the amazing. You can't single out anyone in particular, they're all incredible. Testimony to a great team culture.

UNIVERSITY AVENUE VETERINARY HOSPITAL REVIEWS

We cannot thank you enough for your compassion last month when we had to make the awful decision to put our 10 year old fur child Darcy down. Today, a handwritten card with paw prints arrived in the mail and took our breathe away. We have been grateful for the care Darcy received and when we are ready to get another dog, Uni Ave will be our vet.

Amazing vets ;) took amazing care of both my darling dog chopper when he decided to play with a cane toad but were wonderful with me, keeping me calm and letting me help with Chopper's care. Thank you so much for saving my little man :)

Forever thankful for saving my dogs life. You did an amazing job. So personal and professional.
