My cat hates the vet. She turns into a vicious little monster every time the word vet is even…read morementioned. So having to actually take her into one is a momentous task. The last time I took her to the vet she ended up clawing the back of the vet, and trying to swing from the 2 meter high window sill. I took her into Glenvale vet, in Glen Waverley, ready for a war. We waited less than ten minutes, which was a good start. When we were called in, the vet was lovely. She was very gentle and friendly towards my cat, and my cat really responded to that. I was shocked when she proceeded to purr and rub herself up against the vet. I have never seen her behave so relaxed in the company of a vet. She was even more than happy to allow the vet to take her temp. My cat ended up needed a course of antibiotics, and I took her back in for a follow up and was not charged for the second consult. I thought that was fantastic. It is expensive enough to care for animals without the added cost of expensive vet trips. Even now I live a good distance away from this vet, but it's worth me traveling there when my cat needs attention because I know she feels comfortable there.

We are so grateful to Dr Phil for giving our pet chicken, Sarah, a fantastic, extended quality of…read morelife, despite living with a chronic heart condition. I took Sarah here nearly 3 years ago, when I noticed she was experiencing shortness of breath. Dr Phil diagnosed her with heart disease, and started Sarah on medications which relieved her breathing difficulties, and greatly improved her energy levels. Amazingly, Sarah is still active and happy now, at 11 years of age, thanks to being given her medications twice a day. While this is a commitment, we see Sarah as an equal member of the family to our other pets, and equally worthy of the best care possible. Dr Phil and the other staff at this clinic always impress me with their warmth, expertise, genuine care and dedication. I can trust them to be gentle and experienced when handling Sarah, and for any procedures, so that her visits to the vet are stress free. I travel over 80 km each way to come here, and consider it well worth it. Highly recommend.

I do not recommend taking any animal to this 'clinic', on September 25 2014 they were more than…read morewilling to do nothing to treat my dog who was critically ill with no diagnosis at the time because I did not have the full amount of their fees for tests, when I say full amount, I mean they didn't try ANYTHING because I was a few hundred shy, pay day in 2 days, and his best guess was he was anemic, with no tests apart from looking at him to fully prove it, paid for the consultation, got him to another vet, they treated him like he was the queens dog, turns out it was a tumor over his heart that was operable, but unfortunately the survivability rate was low, they should turn this 'vet practice' into an abattoir

I was housesitting for a family friend, had taken their two dogs on a nice long walk and was about…read more10 metres from home when the younger animal (a spectacularly stupid dog) decided that the best way to make friends with his aggressive barking next door neighbour was to shove his nose through the fence and into the snarling dog's mouth. Genius. This is a Sunday, mind you, so it was going to be hard to find a vet open that was prepared to clean up the mess and stop the bleeding. Luckily for me Greencross was just down the road and open! Dragged dumb dog quickly to the vet, while he cheerfully wagged and rubbed his bleeding nose all over the backseats of my car. He then proceeded to pee all over the floor of the vets (but, given the mop bucket behind the reception counter, I suspect it's something they're used to). The vet reassured me that he was going to be fine and I was sent home with a freshly tetanus-jabbed dog who was far more proud of himself than he really should have been. What a relief! When the home-owners came back a few weeks later, they insisted on paying me back for the vet visit. Why? Because this was not the first time the dog had done it and they felt responsible. Oh dear.
