What Our Clients Say
We moved into the Yeronga area over 18 years ago with our 2 border collies and were fortunate to have someone recommend the Yeronga Veterinary Surgery to us. Since then they have supported us through many wonderful moments when we added 2 wolfhounds to our family and adopted 2 kittens through their adoption service. They have also supported us in the most devastating of times losing 3 dogs over the years. Anita and her team achieve the perfect balance of being excellent vets providing the best of care for pets (and their owners) in a genuine caring and compassionate manner. We are always able to book appointments when needed and have been seen promptly when we have had emergency situations too. I would highly recommend Yeronga Veterinary Surgery.

What Our Clients Say
Hi there puny human my name is Bastet. Here is a picture of me in all my glory to help your feeble human brain rest for a moment so I don’t pile on to much information at once. Ready? Nevermind let’s continue. Every few months my manservant deems it necessary to verify the divinity of close personal friend Zeus and myself, here is picture of us looking regal. I know you’re thinking “They are clearly perfect why would he waste their time.” and the answer is frankly he’s not very bright but means well so we indulge him. One thing we demand in return is that he takes us to the Yeronga Vet Surgery where we know we will be shown the respect and deference as befits ones such as us. So if you must interrupt the napping, playing or eating of your betters take them to Yeronga Vet Surgery.
What Our Clients Say
We first came to Yeronga Veterinary Surgery nearly 4 years ago, carrying our tiny black Labrador puppy Delilah in, hoping to find some guidance and caring attention, and just a little bit of shared dog-madness. Well, we were in luck, and we have never looked back. The team at Yeronga Vet Surgery have been nothing short of exceptional at every step of our journey with them. From the basics of preventative care to important surgeries (and the odd mini-emergency thanks to our hungry labradors…) everyone has been both professional and welcoming, and more importantly, extremely good at their jobs! I am constantly blown away by the care and attention we receive, and the fact that our dogs cry with excitement when we pull into the street says it all. We’ve never had dogs who are so excited to visit the vet. We can’t recommend the team highly enough – they are exceptional.
